Colt or filly? Since the foal just "appeared", I'd call it "Shazam!".

Yep, cool place...a good place to live if you like the west, cowboys, cattle and horses. Lots going on there too, you'd never be bored.

I have had horses as long as I can remember. My Dad bless his heart put me on a horse when I couldn't even walk yet, and you can only imagine the fear my mom had. My Grandpa had mules he used to farm with, and I would pester him and pester him to le…

I have found that horses are one of the few gifts that give in direct proportional amounts to whatever I put into them. If I go to them with understanding patience, they learn and return in full. If I approach them in frustration and ignorance, that…

Tell us something about you, anything.
This website has been a goal of mine for a long time...my hope is that it brings horse lovers together and encourages people to ride in groups so they stay safer and more active. If that happens, this website will be worth all of the work that goes into maintaining it.

My family has lots of interests that include wine, horses, longhorn cattle, and just about all other animals too. Although we love the animals, our greatest passion, admittedly, is health care. For me it has been a life long passion.

We've lived in many places but since we've been married we've lived in Tennessee the longest. We love life in Tennessee!!

Cheers and happy trails!
