I rode a pony only once. It was when I was a little girl in Germany, visiting my grandparents. I was sad because my father had died. They knew someone with a pony and I could sit on the pony and have my picture taken to cheer me up. She was a black pony named Sabina. Those pictures are still in the family album. How nice to know someone was that kind to a little girl whose father had died.
