Proud owner with the beauty

Met him while we were taking rest and Usman was changing clothes. Usman fell in the stream while filling water bottle and soaked all his clothes.

Me this baba ji and horse again when we were going back to Riat Village and at that time this white horse was completely decorated and he was riding and beaming with joy and pride
