Childhood Toys
We were helping Steph's mom and dad move some cabinets into her Grandma's garage tonight. I was looking around, trying to find something interesting to shoot, when I saw this horse off to one side. I immediately remembered having one of these as a kid. I can't really remember much beyond that, only that my siblings and I used to beat the heck out of it. It was a plastic horse mounted to a steel frame by springs, and you would sit on it and bounce. Yeah, that's about it. Tech wasn't quite then what it is today. This one is far more styalized and expressive in the face than mine was, but it still was a lot of fun.

Hi Jason just mom.
The horse you remembered was Kathy's to start with. It took alot of talking for her to let you ride it. She finnaly just got to big for the thing and it went to you.
It was still in good shape when David came along. But he really put the wear and tear on it. When he got to big for it we tried to sale it at a garage sale. David wouldn't get off of it that day and we had to haul it back inside. I not sure where it ended. But I do know David used it's springs for something he was inventing.
Love you
Mom
