The Idea of Order: Pony Camp – TAKE TWO!
Who doesn’t love pony camp?

The ponies…that’s who.
Greetings from Dante’s Inferno here in Florida!
This week’s comic is another ode to the gloriousness that is pony camp! You know, when all the kiddos are entertained by tormenting the most tolerant of equids (and some of the less tolerant too). 😉

This sort of thing will never not be amusing (says the person who would *still* glitter polish her horses’ hooves if she thought she could get away with it). 😅🫣
Morgane Schmidt is, among many things, an equestrian who still hasn’t quite decided what she wants to be when she grows up. Author of Life with Horses Is Never Orderly, she knows all about the madness that comes with the equine territory, having owned and competed horses in eventing and dressage for years. A lifelong fan of the classic equestrian cartoons penned by internationally renowned artist Norman Thelwell, she began her own comic series in 2011, sharing deftly funny reflections on life with horses on Horse Nation as well as her personal website. A native Floridian, she spent a decade in Reno, NV, where she was able to confirm her suspicion that snow is utterly worthless (she has since regained her sense and moved back to the Florida swamp). Though she has run the gamut of equestrian disciplines, her favorite is dressage. She has completed her USDF bronze and silver medals and is currently working on her gold. Generally speaking, her life is largely ruled by Woody, a 14.2 hand beastly quarter horse, Willie, a now beastly 12-year-old Dutch gelding, and Milona DG, a 6 year old KWPN chestnut mare (you can make your own inferences there…).
