Riding with Mom

Mom was the one who planted the seed to my obsession with horses. I think I was around 4 years old when I started riding her beloved Brandy and I have been in the saddle ever since. I would be so excited to saddle up the horses and go for a ride with her. I can clearly remember one time when we rode across the train tracks from our old place just South of Twin Lakes in BC. I was on my pony Prince and Mom had dismounted and dropped the reins so Brandy could eat while Mom closed the gate ... and bam .... Brandy took off like a shot ... she was gone. Mom was not impressed! She told me to dismount Prince and she promptly jumped in the saddle and took off on my pony. I waited at the gate wondering what was going on. It didn't take long, Mom came back on Prince with a very cheeky Brandy in tow. Mom was mad at Brandy, but not for long. Brandy had many bad habits but Mom always saw the good in her and loved that mare.
