My Little Pony

My dad got a new pony for the grand kids. It is a rescued pony from a neglected bunch that made the news.

It is a beautiful Welsh pony, chestnut colored with a blonde mane and tail.

His hooves have been let go and so he needs corrective farrier work done, that is happening this week. He is a gentle pony and very tame, following us around like a puppy.

The kids are thrilled about it, but none more than my little horsewoman, Sophie. She was the first to climb up and have a ride. Once his hooves are done, they will have even more chance to learn to ride a horse/pony and learn about caring for one.

I wish we lived closer as we can only visit on Sundays, but that is a great thing to look forward to.

I believe the kids have all agreed to call him Applejack, or A.J. for short.

Now about those chickens.......:)
