We have endured the mud for 2 years and I am excited to let you know I finally had a riding ring put in last week! In two days Tich General Services dug up and leveled the surface then received and spread 6 tri-axles of Screenings. Thanks also goes to the farm’s neighbor and boarder for the use of their heavy machinery.

Saturday was the first lessons on it. I felt so official. Like a real riding instructor.

With the warmer weather and longer days I am excited to see last year’s students returning for lessons. She did a great job getting back in the saddle and remembered everything. It’s like riding a bike I said. After the lesson she and her mom went to say hi to the horses. Nashy my lover boy really enjoyed the hugs and kisses.

A long time lesson taker and now friend decided to partial lease Cuervo instead of continuing lessons. Now she can come and visit Cuervo any time that I am not using him for a lesson or trail ride. Congrats Cuervo on your new Step Mom.


I have a few more horses available for partial lease, let me know if your are interested in learning more about this way to ease yourself into horse ownership.

This time we had 3 guys and 3 girls helping us. We unloaded and stacked 132 bales of hay in record time. I think it took us like 20 minutes.

So this time it was Nash’s turn to meet Chex and Warlock. It was cute with the baby because after the initial checking each other out Nash so started to lick the baby. The Chex had to check things out when the nipping, play biting and squealing started. So I am happy to say they are all getting along really well. Just in time for the last boarder to join us in April.
