Welcome to >Shining Meadow Stables!" I greeted. Jesse greeted me >back, and we walked up to Perfect. I showed him how to >tack up, and we walked into the arena.

I grettted her, and watched as she and >Jesse drove toward home again. "BYE!" I yelled. What a >great lesson. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
