Happy Halloween!
It is a gloomy, spooky Halloween here in Montgomery, Texas! Being under construction, there are contractors in and out of the farm every day so I go check on things and make sure everything is locked up at night. My dog, Khloe, goes with me and thinks it's the greatest thing ever. I, on the other hand, …
Wildness
Horses have been a huge part of my life since I was twelve years old. I think my love them began much sooner, however. As a girl, I was always an animal lover. Rather than watching cartoons, I watched the Discovery Channel. To this day, I know a lot of random facts about wildlife. Horses …

Never Forget

Auto Changes
Chance was crazy good today. He has been on stomach supplements for a little over a week now, and I think they might be working! His sourness seems to be slipping away. He was calm and quiet at the jumps, and even got his lead changes completely on his own. I was amazed. Lead changes …
"The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new." ~ Socrates Wishing you all a great and short week filled with horses!
Hot Hot Labor Day!
It is a humid Labor Day here in Montgomery! I rode around nine this morning, just a light hack, and we were both sweaty messes. Coming to the end of summer, we still have to remember to keep ourselves and our horses well hydrated. I made the mistake of not staying hydrated yesterday. I did …
