The most fun I've ever had was on the back of a horse.
I was a clumsy child. I flunked out of ballet. I fell on my teacher after trying to turn my feet out in fourth position one too many times. Atop a horse, I was regal and elegant. Wrapping my legs around their power has always been magical for me. I dreamed of having a dappled gray Arabian but that dream never came true.
