Pony Dreams

July 31, 1941, Menasha Record

I can only imagine the realizations going on in the mind of a parent to have won this prize of a pony and how much fun it would be to turn this down once his or her child gets wind of it!  Oh yes, the pony comes with lots of equipment but no mention of feed, boarding, etc.  Try explaining THAT away to your kid.  Oh, for the simpler Labor Days of rides, parades, and picnics.

But with no ponies, at least in MY sight, I will enjoy my Labor Day weekend, whatever it entails.  I'll be back next Tuesday after all the hoopla.  Stay safe!
