I used to ride to the end of our driveway to get the newspaper every morning. By the end of my senior year, I didn’t need a bridle even, she would listen to just leg cues.
I also once rode my horse to school using bike paths to turn in a project 
I also one brought a chicken trio In a dog carrier for biology class, and my roo roosted on the projector during Spanish.
Want more country kid stories? I have lots

Ahhhh what a lovely one.
We used to have kids come to school on tractors – like literally a John Deer parked in the parking lot. I think that was our Maximal Country™.

Oh see the super embarrassing thing is that I went to school in town. No one else was country come to think of it, it’s a miracle my husband knew me then and later went on to date me…

I had no idea that mounted patrol used anything but quarterhorses. The barn I rode out was all old retired police horses and they were all quarterhorses. I wonder if that’s specific my region (kentucky).

Trying to make herd prey animals into creatures that won’t be upset and get spooked by children running up to them with balloons and bells (or, like, a duck) is… yeah. It’s not how they’re naturally built.

Well you know the saying right? Horses are only scared of two things. things that move, and things that don’t move.

Oh Portland so we still have horse tethers in the sidewalks a lot of places, so people will hitch little plastic horses to them. (And dinosaurs, sometimes). Well someone made them little masks
