I love to travel and I love to do pony play as a horse.  For some reason, I've never really done it for Halloween.  It seems I was always involved with something that prevented it, but not this year.  Miss Ann, from the Erotic Arts Ball, booked me almost a year in advance for the EAB 2004.  I was also fortunate enough to get booked for the Fantasy and Fetish Halloween Ball in Las Vegas.  A busy weekend, yes, but WOW.. what fun!

 First, EAB and The Goddess Carol... I had been out to Indianapolis to visit Miss Ann and for her to do some riding as well as a workshop for INKINK.  It was a blast but as time got closer to the EAB, she realized she was going to be way too busy to ride and take care of a horse all night so she enlisted the help of an equestrienne from Indiana named The Goddess Carol.  I went to visit The Goddess Carol and stayed in role as her horse for 3 days, it was a blast (see journal entry for that trip).  But we didn't get a lot of work done for the EAB, so I went a few days early to work on our routine.

We worked up a few things and had a great visit.  While there, she rode me daily, Mistress Tuesdayy (the barn manager) rode me one afternoon and raced me against the Amish going down the road (now there was a confused look).  She is such a natural at riding and isn't hesitant to make me work for her.

We took off to Columbus, Ohio one day to visit The Chamber & The Garden and have lunch with my friend Miss Varian.  For some reason, I set off those security gates at a lot of stores.  Well, they were determined to find out what it was before they let me in. I had taken out everything and was all but naked and still setting it off... eventually, we went in and had a nice talk and visit with the employees there.  We went and had lunch at Thurman's Cafe (one of the best hamburgers you'll find ANYWHERE!) then headed back to Indiana where The Goddess Carol and Miss Varian did some riding (images in the gallery).

The next day we went to Indianapolis where Miss Ann had reserved us a wonderful suite at the Hilton.  We took a taxi to the location of the EAB and socialized for an hour or so until time for our performance.  While I was in the restroom, someone mentioned they were having a ball and that this was not what they had expected.  We got into a conversation and when he found out what I did he was so surprised.  He mentioned the reason he and his friends were there was because his boss had seen the HBO show on pony play, etc... He took me to meet his friends and noted that Dawn & Mary would be very interested in riding.  It was also Dawn's birthday and she was very enthusiastic about riding.  So, I promised them both a ride after the performance. 

There were also some of The Goddess Carol's friends there.. Mistress Gia, The Queen, Tammi (in pantyhose I might add), slave devin, joe (who dresses nicely in latex), and I know I'm forgetting someone but my mind is blank.

The performance times came and the music we were going to use did not work and I forgot to give the narrator the copy to read <silly horse>.. but we had a blast anyway.  I was so surprised at the applause we received when they announced us.  It was so nice... We did a short little ride with a few jumps (slave devin who was there with her Mistress Gia was our log to jump).

Later, I gave the ride to Dawn but by now, the bar had taken it's effect on her.  She mounted and was soo funny trying to just sit up.  I gave her a short ride and she did great all considered, until we tried to dismount. She had on tall platform shoes and the right one was hung.  Because the music was so loud, she couldn't hear my trying to instruct her and as I looked up to yell again, she fell back down on  my face (now, ok.. this is not a complaint as she was wearing pantyhose!!).  After a few times of this we finally got her foot out and on the ground.  Her friend Mary was going to ride but the awards were starting and by the time they were over, Mary was having to leave with her friends... I do hope there will be another time for her to ride!

I did give a few more rides that night including the most gorgeous Emily, who is the niece of Miss Ann.  She had not taken a ride when I was there in the spring and I was so disappointed.  But when she came up and asked to ride, it made up for that disappointment.  She did great and was going to ride again later in the night but time just got away as it usually does at events.

I did have a chance to visit with Wildponi who was sooooo hot in her white pony gear (and pantyhose that she wore just for me <yum>).  She had been doing pony all night as well and wears the pony hoofs, they are harder to wear than high heels I'm sure... we all made a date for breakfast the next day.

At closing, I was still ready to give rides but we had to go.. I had a busy day the next day with my trip to Las Vegas!  The next day we all met and had breakfast, toured some of the city before my flight and then it was Viva Las Vegas!

Las Vegas segment was a blast as well.  I arrived and got my rental car, met up with Mistress Samantha & misbehavin ponygirl from Bumble Bee Stables as well as their friends Master Denman & sassy.  We had a nice dinner at Ellis Island Casino then went back to the hotel to get ready for the night.

We arrived at the Event Center Las Vegas (formerly the All American Sports Park) around 9:30 PM and went to the dressing area for the performers.  By 10:00 PM people were coming in pretty quick.  There were SOOOO many interesting looking people and costumes and more beautiful women in one building than should be allowed...

We went to the VIP area where the stage for the ponies were set up.  The last minutes changes gave the 2 pony girls dance performances on the raised and spotlighted stage while I was offered to ladies to ride.  I was in pony space some as well as in travel space that I don't remember who rode me first but I think it was a petite woman in a black mini dress, pantyhose, a mask and a long whip.  She rode me around the VIP area and had a great time with the control factor of my reins.  She was very stern and relentless in her guidance but a thrilling ride nonetheless.

There were many riders that evening and trying to remember all of them would be hard to do since in pony mode I zone in and out a lot.  But I do recall the lady in the cowhide chaps, vest and hat (see photo by Gerry Koehler of Eye on Fetish).  She rode me like I had been her horse for years... riding me around the VIP area, then throughout the arena and event center.  I'm told she rode close to an hour and there were people in line to ride when we got back.  I think she would have rode another hour if they hadn't asked her to give the pony to another lady to ride.. she was fantastic.

There was another woman in the lobby area that rode me for a while, maybe 20 minutes.  She attracted a lot of attention in her head piece and outfit as well as because of her height (over 5' 10").  I seem to recall her name was Deborah and she was awesome.  I do hope some of the photos are sent to me that were taken... I'm told there were probably close to 50 photos taken of her riding me.

The last rider of the night was also fantastic and would have kept riding if the center hadn't started running people out.  She rode about 30 minutes I'm told and was also a rather tall woman.  A very beautiful blonde who expressed interest in photo and video projects in the future.  I do hope to hear from her to work on these things.

There were a lot of other riders that I remember were great.. in fact, I was really surprised that there were no riders that had balance issues or problems riding me... All were great!

It was already after 4:00 AM with the last rider dismounted and she wanted me to go to the after hours party to ride some more.. I was game but lost her while changing.  So we went back to our suite, slept a few hours, checked out and talked with the ladies at the hotel (gave them my card.. possible riders!! <weg>).. Later we had lunch at Caesars Palace then the Bumble Bee Stables group departed for California.  I went and checked in to my new hotel, had dinner and prepared for my return to human life.

I do hope to be at future F&F Balls!

I have found a few images online from the ball, I'll update this page as more come along..
