Popular Post Spanky 1223 Posted July 26, 2018 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted July 26, 2018 Here’s a pic of the Real Spanky doing what spanky likes to do.

If i’m sawing and he wants to go riding he will come in the mill shed and stand and look at me till I quit and take him riding. 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
