...maybe you can ask the stable owner if you can help out. When I am sad being around a pony or horse always makes me better, even if I am just grooming them or cleaning stalls. Pony Pals, Lulu

no I can't help out because my mom wont drive all that way exept for lessons:( It is 1/2 a hour away:(

RougeMustangMare & midnight writes

I'm sorry to hear that, will she allow you to take a bus? Because, well, in my home, it costs $10 for a Public Bus ticket and it goes for a whole month! And there's a program where, you only pay $2 for the ticket with the same results. And, by the way, Lulu, I've started on that story, but it's still in its infancy stage right now. And that's great that you got to trot without a lunge line, and who knows, if you prove to your mom that this is something that you want to go further, maybe she'll take into consideration for taking you everyday to do chores and stuff, so that you'll rise higher as a rider. But, good luck to you when they completely clean the stalls; when we did that, oi, me and my friend were so sore. When they completely clean out the stalls, they fork all of the bedding into the wheelbarrow, and put it toward the muck heap, well, we did anyway. Sweep out the extras, any straw or bedding we didn't get at; than, we had to wash out the stall with warm water and soap, and than, we had to disinfect it, because of the urine and poop and that included the floor, and walls. Than, we had to spread fresh bedding down on the floor, scrub and disinfect the feed and water buckets, the feed manger, and fill them with fresh feed and water; it was even harder when the mare was pregnant or had a foal. But, it was a lot of fun, because the riding instructor rewarded us with free private lessons for helping out.

Dear niliwolf

Some of the coloring contest entries are almost professional looking! I am thinking that we are going to have both age and coloring method classes for coloring contest number three. Here are the categories:

1. Computer colored under 12

2. Computer colored 13 and over

3. Hand colored under 10

4. Hand colored 10-12

5. Hand colored 13 and over

Friends, JC

Pony Pal Thoughts for the Day

It is not the bit but how you use it that makes the horse.
______
There is no such thing as a stupid horse; there are only stupid riders.
And if a man says a horse is no good, it is because the man is no good.
______

Every day you keep a bit out of a horse's mouth, you lose part of his rein.

Arnold Rojas(1899-1988)
