Not often that you will see me and a horse on this blog.  The West of Market Neighborhood picnic was yesterday and I volunteered to help with the Pony Rides. 

I didn't really think it through and was regretting my decision when I met Buckeroo Bob and he insulted my 'sturdy' shoes and stomped on my toes to see if I could handle the ponies wight. The rest of the lesson was a bit less painful but was intense.  All in all, however, I led Dakota around the parking lot for dozens of kids to have a ride on a pony. 

Looks like the kid is about to fall off, yes, I see that.  Buckeroo Bob would be ashamed.

Come on, Dakota!
