Wow! Are you serious??? That is so awesome! I loved that book when I was a kid! No! Sunburned was very real. I am blonde and I can attest to that!
It has been a warm week, but it is still pretty fun to be here! How doesn't love a pony? How about a herd of them>?
Pony Penning Week is in its 97th year. It just doesn't get old!
Just something about that name Chincoteague that is so unique. I guess it stuck with me for what 50 years? Wow.
I know, right? I love the Chincoteague and Assateague Islands. It is said to be an Indian name meaning “beautiful land across the water”. The pronunciation and spelling have changed over time. Court records in 1671 indicate a spelling of “Jungoteague”. A reference from the early 1800s indicates a spelling of “Gingoteag”.
