Last weekend my daughter and I took Polk in our small town's Christmas Parade. We got our picture on the front page of the local newspaper
The day didn't start out well but ended up to be a really great day! Garnet and Nick who were supposed to be with us got caught in a traffic jam on the highway and didn't make it. My husband offered to help me load the carts before he left for work but foolish me said "It's okay, Garnet can help me when he gets here." Mickey and I had a heck of a time getting the cart loaded by ourselves (I can usually use my ramps but the way the truck is set up right now for loading hay I can't use the ramps
) We finally strapped the cart on the back and away we went. We only just finished hitching, slapped a ribbon on Polk's butt for decorations and headed off in the parade. We were with the full size horses just in front of Santa who was, of course, last in the parade. After the parade was finished everyone met in the village green for hot chocolate. Polk was very popular and a ton of kids got their picture taken while giving him a pat. It was the nicest day we have ever had for the parade - so warm and sunny I didn't even have to wear gloves!
