Mom and Dude

Back in the archives somewhere, I've related stories about my mom back in the '30's, when they lived in western Kansas in the "dust bowl" days. When they moved there, a horse (large pony) was running loose, and the previous people said that if they could catch it, they could ride it. So, long story short, this was Mom's mode of transportation to the country school. You can read previous posts about how ORNERY this pony was. But I think I've finally found the picture I was looking for, I'm pretty sure this is MOM ON DUDE. When she was 12, she had grown into her full height around 5'10", so she was a tall teenager.
