been 58 years since I've been on a horse. At 10 years old, I was "contracted" by my neighbor to feed and stable his horse, let him out in the morning and put him up at night, ride him when I wanted. At the same time a school friend of mine owned a riding stable and we got to ride anytime we wanted for cleaning the stalls. great photos!
