Sillies. I was chasing on e of the springer spaniels pups we used to raise. I got to name three of twenty-four pups and I named them "Ace", "Hector" (does ANYONE remember a show from the early seventies about "Hector, he's one heck of a sea dog!" no one ever answers yes to that question) and then I ran out of creativity and the third was "Flower Pot" and I actually remember looking around the porch desperate searching for a name for the third pup I was allowed to name. I remember what the flowerpot I saw looked like. Nuts. Anyway, Hecotr was in the road and a car was coming. Need I say more? The caption says: IN COMPLETE CONTROL (little did they know that they should have joined the first two words  ) "Four Year old Lynne Folsom, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Folsom of Andover, displays complete confidence atop the horse she rides at Brentwood Camp. Lynne was struck by a car last July, suffered two fractured legs, a fractured pelvis and a brain concussion, but made such a speedy recovery that she was able to begin riding this past January." |

Ah, I remember you telling us about that a ways back. Guess I need a new computer if Lisann could read the caption and I couldn't.  |

Lynne, that is the cutest darn picture! Look at those widdle wegs and teeny tiny saddle.  I had forgotten that was you who was run over (and rerun over, if I remember THAT insult to injury, correctly!). Were you about 5? |
