riding pocket and porsha!

yesterday i got to go over to mrs. mary's and ride pocket and porsha! pocket is getting a really thick coat for winter, but it's hot out! :-o I didn't ride him for too long because his leg was hurting him. so mrs. mary said i could ride porsha around! she was good :-) she was ready to go, though. she kept trotting! last week, i was going over to ride pocket. i went into the backyard and there was hay EVERYWHERE. there was a flower pot tipped over, and there were buckets turned over in the yard. i turned around and pocket had his head sticking out of the tack room and he was munching on some grain.  i looked over and the arena gate was standing open, just enough for pocket to walk out. mrs. mary forgot to lock it, and pocket just pushed it open with his nose. i put him back in the (locked) arena, and went to tell mrs. mary. she asked me if he ate the carrots, and i hadn't seen any carrots anywhere. she said that they were in a big green bucket, and i said that there was a big bucket upside down in the middle of the yard...pocket ate the whole thing, lots of grain, and some hay :-o and, according to mrs. mary, a couple of days ago he did it again! :-)
