The Ride Emelie Rahn
It was Sunday. Naomi Parks was excited, as she was every Sunday because today she had equestrian lessons. At 10 o’clock, Naomi and her mom would drive up through the lush green trees in the Saratoga Hills.

If you go up to the main office and talk to the assistant director, I’m sure you can get a summer job,” said Whitney, hopefully. “Thank you,” Naomi said before heading up to the main office.
