I grew up here.

If you look closely you will see two children riding a devilish little shetland pony named Sugar Bear.

Hi Jennifer!
Do you know who might be riding the pony? What was one of your favorite things about growing up on this property?

I believe it was my little sister Michelle and our cousin Dylan on Sugar Bear. Most of the property on this little dirt road was owned by family, so us cousins were always running wild between our homes. My favorite thing about growing up here was the pack of us kids running wild and worry free with our horses and ponies, so much fearless freedom to roam as far as our eyes could see. My Grandpa's house was right next door and I believe you can see him in the garden (left side) between our homes, there is a dirt path hard beaten by us kids running back and forth. Our childhood dog Casanar is in this photo too off to the right near the doghouse and pony pen. This property is the one acre of my grandfather's farm that our family still owns. I moved back to it in 2002 and here I still be.☺️
