Logging with horse sense
Team treds lighter on the land in Pioneer Park garden restoration
Manly Stanley and High Falutin aren't exactly light on their feet.
But their horseshoe-clad hooves were less damaging Thursday to a sensitive historic garden site that is undergoing restoration on Spokane's lower South Hill this year.
