I am so very pleased to let you know that thanks to the very big help of my lesson students we have reached the 1/2 way point in Nash’s fund raising campaign. Thanks for all your help and support we have more to go but this is a great accomplishment. I hope to have the funds raised in time to have the surgery done this winter.
This week’s update for Nash’s fund raiser

This is a link to the you caring website that has information about Nash’s fund raising to help fund his hernia surgery.
Below is my first attempt at a Nash Can. I felt like I was back in kindergarten with scissors and glue.
I Love Nash

My Handsome Man!
He is such a great horse and a big huge lover. He came to me scared and probably abused. When I cleaned his stall he would quickly move to the far wall with a scared look. That made me think he was hit with the manure fork. Now he comes up to me (well everyone) looking to give a hand a lick or receive a hug. He likes to steal your hat and lick your face in the process.
Recently I have started using him in lessons more. He is great with the beginners and stays right by me when I am walking them around. He is kinda lazy and hard to get going but he always aims to please.
Is the summer really over?

The weather is saying yes. The days are cooler the nights are cold. The Calendar is saying yes. It is September! Where did the summer go? It has been non stop and I am truly grateful for that. I am still getting inquiries from new students wanting lessons. Below you will see Nash doing a great job with one of the newbies. He is so patient and gentle, he makes the best first timer experience.
But it is not all about work. Labor day weekend we made it to green lane again. This time we had a tag team group. 2 horses (Apple and Casey), 6 friends , and 4 dogs. When we weren’t riding we were hanging out at the picnic table on the edge of the trail overlooking the lake. It made for a very relaxing day out!
So the dog days of summer are over but you have to admit they have the life here at the farm!

We recently discovered dirt bike trails and paths in the farm’s neighboring woods and fields. Before we could only do road rides and not all the horses are road safe. Now we all can enjoy the great outdoors on the back of a horse.
Just Hang
August 25, 2013
To be, to chill, to pause, to relax, to hang, to pet, to play, to relax, to love, to hug, to hold…. Why do I have animals & what should I take more time to do with them?
I really should take more time to do the above. Life gets so busy there is always something to do at the farm. It is often with new farm friends that I actually get to take a break, stop and enjoy the farm. Yesterday was a typical Saturday: lessons, trail rides, lunch, helped the hay guy unload 2 wagons of hay. But the day ended in the most lovely way possible. I really should do this more often.
Five Years!

I received this in an email on Saturday, from Tumblr which was the original location of my website. I created the webpages which basically corresponds with launching my business 5 years ago. I really can’t believe it has been that long. The Farm started out in Chalfont, PA then moved to Quakertown 3 years ago in October.
Thanks to all my friends and family who has supported and helped me make my dream come true!
A walk on the wild side

Not all the creatures on the farm are tame and domesticated.
Last week a butterfly decided to stop by and say hi while I was helping a student get ready for a lesson.
Today we were visited by an adolescent squirrel. It thought everyone was it’s mom. A special Thanks goes out to 2 farm family members who brought it to the local wildlife refuge.
Oh and then there is Forrest the party animal but that is not the type of wild life this post is about. Bad kitty. (and before I receive negative posts. no, I didn’t let him drink it.)
