Under Suicide Bridge, I remember it well. I also remember the time we allowed them to graze over at Casting Pond while we snuck off to smoke herb. That bastard Perry spooked and took Nia with him. The looooong walk back to the stables with teed off Dammy awaiting our return. Horror of horrors.
Love the portal to hell. It reminds me of times riding Perry into water and all of a sudden he’s swimming! As I remember it, it was Nia who spooked and took well-mannered, sweet Perry with her. I can still see the whites of her eyes.
