That's cool.
This just sounded like a fun ping.
"...when I was your age, I rode a mule to school."
"When I was your age I had to ride a mule to school, through 3 feet of snow and uphill in both directions!"
You forgot the "barefooted" part!
She was in our local paper a couple of weeks ago. Just adorable.
And so responsible for a little one.
Ping.
Yes, I have ridden a mule to school also and was about the same age. The school I attended back then had a few more pupils but not many more. Riding a mule to school was more fun than riding a school bus.
No, "when I was your age, I had to ride a bus to school."

I own horses too....and love them as well, but mules and donkeys are a step up on the IQ.

While this is a wonderful, warm story and wish I could have done the same when I was in school, I never would have allowed a story like this to get into the newspapers for fear of my daughters safety. Gads. There are too many nuts out there. She is now a sitting duck for any pervert.
I appologize for throwing some cold water on this; but again, I now fear for her safety.

Donkey's rule! I have six.
they are in the middle of nowhere and unless the crops are growing, the parents can see her the entire two mile trip. (especially with binoculars)
Why did they advertise this? Some nut is going to kill the mule now......
