Description


Children were offered free horse/pony rides during a recent "Outdoor Adventure Day" at the park near our home. As you can see the local kids had a great time participating in this experience that they otherwise may not have had!

It's hard to look at the girls without overwhelming envy welling up, Jeff! What a perfect day for a pony(horse) ride, too. All that lush greenery makes such a beautiful backdrop. #10698020

I think all little girls love horses. I got my first one when I was 7, and had them continuously til I was about a junior in high school. #10698023

Carolyn, you were so fortunate to have a horse. Lucky girl. And these kids are having a wonderful time too. Outstanding, Jeff. #10698056

I also had my own pony "Goldy" until we moved to CT when I was 11. It broke my heart to have to leave her behind. She ended up being given to a Boy Scout camp in Ohio where she lived a good old age. This brought back fond memories :-) #10698094
