"General"

As a teenager, I taught riding lessons at our farm. It was a way for me to combine two of my loves - horses and teaching. Since my 3/4 thoroughbred was way too much horse for beginners, we "borrowed" General from a family. He was the lead horse in a fox hunting club. An one eyed, gentle giant ... who had been retired from the hunt, General served my students well.  My Dad rode him in a Parent's fun competition at my Pony Club. Not bad form for a "farmer" occasional rider!
