==========================================

When I was 8, 9, and 10 B.P. (before owning my own ponies)my parents would fly  
me out to visit my grandparents in Anaheim, CA.  My granddad would take me to 
the Santa Anita track with him and we'd wander up and down the barn aisles just 
watching the horses.  He loved to bet on them but never wished to own one.

I finally got Misty, a white Welsh pony and her 2 week old colt.  Other than 
what I read I didn't have a clue and neither did my parents.  Me and that colt 
were inseperable.  I'd go out and take naps with him in the summer and one 
winter afraid he'd freeze (this was FL and we actually got a dusting of snow) I 
brought him in the garage.  My dad was not amused and the rubber tiles to this 
day still have little hoofprints in them.

I had to sell them when I was 18 and it took me 20+ years to finally get 
another one.  I've never been happier than when I'm with a horse.  Riding is 
the one thing I've found that is guaranteed to make my migraine go away.
