>>> Despite all the beautiful pictures of adults (tall men, too) riding these magnificent horses -- I suspect that marketers are trying to avoid the "It's only a horse I can buy for my kids" demographic, so they're fudging the numbers and/or buying platform horseshoes, I guess. :)
Platform horseshoes...I hadn't thought of that. I don't think that way myself, because I'm 5'0" barefoot, and I could care less. I never wear heels - the way I look at it, I can be "very short" and comfortable, or "fairly short" and miserable! Anyway you look at it, I'm short...and so are the Icelandic ponies. Who cares - we are what we are, so we might as well be comfortable with ourselves...and our ponies. :) Welcome to the list, Dee. Karen Thomas, NC -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
