Ride A Pony

Me, my sister and dad

I was looking through old childhood photos when I came across this photo when I was about 8 years old.  Besides the horrible photographer (likely my mom) getting more of another pony's butt than my own pony, here is proof that I have rode on a pony!  I remember going to Santa's Village in Lake Arrowhead, California (and it was my first time seeing snow... most of it was probably man made!), but I don't even recall riding the pony!  I remember a lot of other things about it, like my entire leg getting stuck in the snow and I started crying because my leg was wet!

I looked up Santa's Village, and it is no longer open.   It opened up in 1955, and closed in 1998 due to increased competition from Disneyland and Knotts Berry Farm.

On a side note, the photo was not a Polaroid, I just had fun editing it on Picnik that is now embedded into Picasa!

Date Accomplished:  Early 1990
