OUR SHOW HORSES AND PONIES
Ginger
Ginger isn't a Chincoteague pony but we're going
to brag about her anyway. We were in Virginia
at a sport horse sale and saw this pony. Our
grandson (who was not with us) was having a bit
of a confidence problem and hadn't cantered yet.
The woman selling her was selling her school
horses and said she might "no sale" her
depending on who bought her. Well, grampa jumped
right in there and it kept going and going. Christie,
our daughter, had her head in her lap and said
she ws going to be sick. Finally, the other person
gave up. Ginger is a packer and totally takes
care of her rider. We tried to tell our grandson
we needed him to care for her until Christmas
because she was a present for a little boy. We
couldn't do it when we saw how much he loves
her. He cantered her on day one bareback and
came home with a championship ribbon their first
show. They have been inseparable ever since.
They are now jumping. So much for the confidence
problem.
