You know you’re going to have your work cut out for you when your barn-mate texts you a picture of your pony with the caption, “I want to be a brown horse!” Truly, I had to put some solid time in with the metal curry comb and a hard brush before I could even think about putting a saddle on that mess. My pony sure has enjoyed her post-season vacation and, true to form, she’s not about to make it easy for me as we get back to work!
