And long time readers know that that always means a listen to Chubby Checker's famous dance song, Pony Time!
It is indeed Pony Time, whether you are heading to Kentucky or not. NAN begins today and is being held in the Clarion, so between that and those who arrive early, things are already happening.
Not attending in person? Keep your eye on social media. Facebook has several groups devoted to BreyerFest, there's Instagram and Tik Tok, YouTube, and Model Horse Blab among others.
Breyer is doing a Where's Waldo sort of guessing game with Flinka. This is from Instagram, but I would imagine it can be found on Breyer's other social media sites as well.
I always like to start BreyerFest week off by listening to rock and roll legend, Chubby Checker, as he sings an aptly named song, Pony Time. (Lyrics below.)
Yeehah! It's pony time!
Pony Time recorded by Chubby Checker, 1961, lyrics by John Berry and Don Covay
It's pony time, get up Boogety, boogety, boogety shoo...
Hey now let's party with the union hall, It's pony time when ya hear this call, So get with it, Don't quit it, Get up.
Do the pony with your partner, With a big boss line, Well anyway ya do it, You're gonna look real fine, So get with it, Don't quit it, Get up.
Now ya turn to the left when I say gee, You turn to the right when I say haw, Now gee, ya ya baby, Now haw, ya oh baby, oh baby, pretty baby, Do it baby, oh baby, oh baby, Boogety, boogety, boogety, boogety shoo.
Gonna see little Suzie, who lives next door, She's doin' the pony, she's takin' the floor, Eeea ah, so get with it, don't quit it, come on, Boogety, boogety, boogety, boogety shoo.
Do the pony with your pardner, Oh in a big boss line, But anyway you do it, You're gonna look just fine, So get with, Don't quit it, Come on. Eeeaaah
Now you turn to the left when I say gee, You turn to the right when I say haw, Now gee, ya ya little baby, Now haw, ya oh baby, oh baby, pretty baby, Do it baby, oh baby, oh baby, Boogety, boogety, boogety, boogety shoo.

Music City Son, Cole who worked with Chubby a few years ago.
It's pony time! And to celebrate the start of BreyerFest, here's a ditty by Chubby Checker called just that - Pony Time!
I stumbled across this song by accident while looking at some of the musicians Music City Son Cole has worked with in Nashville, but it sure fits the way I am feeling this morning as I wait for BreyerFest to open at 10:00! (Lyrics below.)
