     Jessica's class wins first prize for selling the most chocolates in the school...six free horseback riding lessons...but the horse they give her gives her a ride she won't ever forget!


 


 


 



Jessica's fourth grade class sold five hundred boxes of chocolates and

won the school contest. First prize--six free horseback riding lessons!


The anxious fourth graders arrived at Chamberlain's horse farm by school
bus.Mary, the instructor, greeted them and led the students to the
stable for lesson one: How to trot.

Jessica was assigned a horse that was a ringer for the proverbial "old
gray mare". "She won't make it out of the stable!", Jessica said under
her breath.

The corral was crowded and Jessica's old mare was bit in the behind by a
nasty horse. It barrelled off, leaving Jessica clinging on, screaming.
As it galloped around the corral, the old mare turned sharply and threw
Jessica off her back. A shaken Jessica was helped back on the old mare
by Mary.

"You need to get right back on the horse. Next week will be better for
you Jessica.", Mary reassured her.

Jessica retorted, "Lady, these lessons are free, but, please no more old
fogies for me!
