Another day at the Farm

Last wednesday I went to the horse farm that I've worked at for over a year already. There I rode Rebel, a fat, little pony, around the field with my sister Nancy and friend Stephanie, at the walk and trot. After that I saddled up Ginger, the most amazing, chestnut pony ever walking the earth, and rode her is the loafing barn! That is where all the muck is, and the horses loaf. However, it was way too cold outside, thus, the loafing barn was quite a bit warmer. Due to the want of adventure, and the fact that the cold was making me crazy, I rode a little, grey pony named Starlight bareback around the barn. The adventurous part was that she only had a halter and lead rope on, and I could steer only one was, unless I flung the rope over her head to the other side. The crazy part was that is she got it in her mind to run or buck, my only defense would be to steer her in a circle!  Ah...bliss...and that was another day on the back of a horse...
