Oldies from the Late Summer

In early September we headed down to Newport to make our annual trip to watch Newport Polo. It's such a fun day! I love going in Sept because the late afternoon sun is just beautiful.


Between the two halves of the match, attendees can go out onto the field and replace divots. I also ventured in the area where the horses are kept, and caught up with the players while they were relaxing. I love the details of the match.

At the end of the match, all of the players from both teams come by on their horses slap the attendees hands as they make a circle around the edge of the field. I love the shadows created.
