Spirit (Ghostville's new name) is such a good boy! He moves out of the way when we're feeding or watering him or cleaning his stall, and walks politely on a lead rope, even after being cooped up so much due to the weather! That's really something, for a 3 year old bred to race!
And Doc has been SO patient, staying in HIS stall, too, to help keep the new boy content. They seem to really appreciate being able to see each other across the aisle (which we call the "pass-through" for some forgotten reason...).
"Miss Barb" can't WAIT to start working with him when the weather improves enough!

Couldn't seem to add this to his album, so putting it on here separately for now. This is after Teresa (and I) walked him for a while in the round pen, and then turned him loose!

I can't offer lessons right now, but I have adopted a young Standardbred gelding from New Vocations. and he should be ready to give private lessons in a few months (assuming the weather co-operates!) He's a big, healthy fellow, so we won't have the same rider-weight constraints we had with Sugar!
I also plan to have him pull my training cart, and -- should Mother Nature and he cooperate -- also pull it as a SLEIGH (if we get him going with it in time and it SNOWS!) (the training cart converts to a sleigh)
But for now it's a challenge just keeping him in a clean, dry stall.

If somebody would be so kind as to tell me how to temporarily hide this page, I would do so until I can offer lessons again, so as to stop giving people bad search results. Just comment on this or PM me if you can help. Thanks!
This picture is of Pastor Joe helping out at a Frank Bell clinic. He kept a horse from being useless and maybe even sent to slaughter!

Hello, and thanks for visiting!
I'm sorry, but we cannot offer riding lessons at this time.
My lesson mare has passed away, and I have not had the opportunity to add another horse since I got her -- over 20 years ago! This is my favorite picture of her, from many years ago.
