Rocky Ridge, Maryland – April 24, 2014: Metro Meteor the painting racehorse, and Ron Krajewski stand for portraits at Motter’s Station Stables in Rocky Ridge, Maryland April 24, 2014. Metro Meteor was once one of the fastest turf racing horses, but an injury ended his career, and almost his life. Ron and his wife Wendy rescued Metro Meteor. As a way to expend the horse’s boundless energy, Ron let him paint. Half of the sales from the paintings help pay for Metro’s vet bills. The other half helps his fellow former athletes via the New Vocations Racehorse Adoption Program — of which $60,000 has been donated.
It was one of the first beautiful days of the year and I got to spend it out in the gorgeous Maryland countryside, hanging out with a painting horse AND I GOT PAID FOR IT!!! It can’t get much better than that, amiright? Here’s the New York Times Article.
