Horsin' Around

Shereen Thompson looks child-like aboard Poe, an eight-year-old Clydesdale she rescued a year ago, as they ride in a parade to kick off the Dresden Exhibition on Friday. 

Poe is a contender for the Guinness Book of World Records for the tallest horse.  The record presently stands at just over 19.3 hands.  Poe is 20.2 hands. 

He was a hit at the parade with onlookers constantly asking how large the horse is.
