He was small enough that he wasn't taken seriously and thus got away with stuff. But he was also big enough to be treated like a horse. I got stuck with him a couple of times and found out (the hard way) that the only way to get him under control was to run him wide open in a straight line for a while. When he was winded he was ready to go to work.George Stringamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11375285536941813368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3723327840869334395.post-57878931611681732982013-02-20T13:04:22.983-07:002013-02-20T13:04:22.983-07:00Oh my gosh Diane... you were quite the dare devil....Oh my gosh Diane... you were quite the dare devil... your parents must have wondered what next... lol :)Launna https://www.blogger.com/profile/09447311902825477772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3723327840869334395.post-59603192679543129922013-02-20T12:52:28.509-07:002013-02-20T12:52:28.509-07:00No one can say you were prone to giving up lol.No one can say you were prone to giving up lol.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
