I guess I’m just the typical 79-year-old teenager who never got over loving and fantasizing about having horses.
Conversation in the Garden
.
My parents had a boat we got to sail all summer – they said that was enough! No horses!
I said, ‘But, but, we have a barn! And I’ll keep the tack in good shape, and clean out the stall every day! And …”
They just looked at each other, made wry-face, and snickered - nope.
Dreamy me didn’t know how bloody expensive having a horse was! From purchase to tack and saddle and blanket to corral and fencing and shoeing and … Not gonna happen. So sorry.
But that’s OK! I got to go sailing every summer, and I didn’t have to muck out and clean up stalls every day!
Now I get to draw and have as many horses as I want!
