You filled in where I left off. Good job! Sleigh rides are great too. One Christmas I purchased a CD for my sister that contained sounds of a sleigh ride (hooves, bells and the crunch of snow) set to music. Her AZ life leaves her a bit homesick for MN. Now that I live in the South I wish that I had purchased a copy for myself. Riding on the back of a wagon with hay, pulled by a pickup truck, just ain’t right.
Something else that’s hilarious is witnessing a TX horse walking on frozen ground for the first time. If you haven’t seen it, you couldn’t imagine it. It took my daughter’s horse (Mohican) three days before he adjusted.

Thanks for sharing pics of your horses. They’re beautiful. I’m also sorry to hear what happened to your mare StGermain. So sad.
I was fortunate to have a stable of horses at my disposal whenever I visited my uncle in Florida. I was often complimented on my riding ability, though I am not really sure what that means. I mean, I never fell off.
I never once, really, have the orgasmic experience that you devs say a girl can have. I’m not doubting it. But for this sweet, innocent Catholic School Girl, if Our Lady Of Perpetual Guilt ever heard of little girls getting off while riding the sweaty vibrator named Ribbed For Your Pleasure ( two Sears Die Hards not Included) we would have been told we would go blind the minute we …uh…mounted up.
But, why I liked riding was there is an infinate sense of control riding a huge animal, controlling it with just a nudge or gesture and making it do what you want. I could get a big horse to jump a fence, but for the life of me , I cannot get my dog to sit on command.
Naturally, I could segway into the " I like horse back riding because it makes me feel at one with nature" but it sounds like something a playboy bunny would say.
It’s not just little girls. Horses are very majestic creatures and they command a certain degree of respect. A lot of the people that ride at my school are males.
And as for unicorns, I know a lot of guys that have interests in mythical creatures, as well as unicorns. Unicorns can be depicted in different ways. The serene peaceful beatiful unicorn will appeal to girls, and the brutal savage unicorn will appeal to boys.
Where in anything but modern lit has the unicorn ever been portrayed as “brutal” or “savage”?
The unicorn has always been legenday for its ability to dip its horn into a poll of water and render even a poisonous pond fit to drink for all animals.

The Lore of the Unicorn
by: Odell Shepard
Avenel Books, New York 1982
This is the most comprehensive work on the legend of the unicorn. Although I have not read it in quite some time, I cannot remember a single historical reference to a unicorn being thought of as violent in any way save to defend itself. Feel free to provide some cites hypergirl.
