I didn't want to leave my horse unattended.....dragonlaurel said:You should have just climbed the tree. They are very nice places for kids to be.freemotion said:Yikes! The worst thing I remember doing was taking my horse to the lake and making her swim.... I would strip off her saddle and hide it in some bushes, then urge her into deeper and deeper water until she started leaping....then swimming. I would hold on tight to her mane and basically float above her, trying to stay over her so when she touched bottom again and started leaping, I would end up on her back and not under her legs.
I did not know how to swim.
The other thing my parents didn't know was that I would ride alone miles into the woods and fields, where humans rarely went, and if I saw an apple tree, I would park that pony under the tree and stand on her back to pick the best apples.

I was able to get into my Grandmas attic from the outside before I was school age. She had an antenna mast that was three metal poles like a triangle and it was close to the house. I'd climb it to the widow's walk (balcony) which they didn't think to lock then up into the attic. Just did it because it was there. Never got caught.

Oh it is a wonder our parents survived!
