When you're exercising the resident Chonk and you're suddenly stuck by the feeling you've seen this fellow before 🤔. Maybe somewhere in your past??? 😜

Little Farm Hands gotta Farm Hand however they can.

When the resident bully decides to get pushy with a mare who takes no crap.

Saint had to learn the hard way that you don't try to push around the Peeks.

Did we have appropriate equipment??
No...
Do we have a creative R&D department??
Yes, yes we do.

Sometimes you just do it for science.

In the continuing adventures of "Hell no, I'm not going inside", I bring you late night mowing...

Anyone else escaping the kitchen by cooking outside tonight??

This heat is murder.

To our friends and family under evacuation notice due to the MacDonald Fire. We're here if you need horse support ❤️

We got this 💪

Grumpy old man appreciation post.

Saint is nothing short of amazing. Being in his mid -20s is nothing for this Rockstar.

Love him ❤️

This Guy... This one right here.

After putting up with a 2 day Clinic on Father's Day weekend, he then proceeds to rig a misting system for the "Oh God I need shade" spectator tent. And THEN to top it all off, after our literal acres of lawn finally killed our riding lawn mower, he beat a seized Woods Finish Mower into submission so we could deal with the Grass Jungle.

This Farm Dad kicks massive ass. He's deeply loved and appreciated ❤️

Gorgeous Sunday at the farm. Most of the 4 legged kids got out and played a bit including this fine gentleman. Anyone who says Drafts can't move has never met Saint.

And here we have the elusive Alaskan Horse Girl. Cautiously venturing out after a winter of extreme cold she takes this time to use the spring Sun to recharge her batteries. Gathering and saving up that power in order to prepare her for the coming 90 days of 24 hr equine shenanigans. Preparation is key. This is a marathon, not a sprint.

When you think your favorite sass mare is coming in for a snuggle, but really she wants to jack your coffee.

Jerk.

More of this 48° weather in March please, gorgeous day for a ride.

When daylight savings means you can hang up the headlamp to do evening chores, I can't complain much. March 11, 8.30pm.

When you manage to work yourself up to a mild panic because you can't find Saint during breakfast nose count. Only to realize he was RIGHT THERE the entire time. 🤦

"Where's Waldo" has nothing on "Try to find the white horse in the snowy pasture"

It may be -28 this morning, but Georgie is taking full advantage of the heat from the spring Sun. ☀️😎☀️

The new Barn Manager has progressed from ground work to training via horseback. The learning curve is a steep one, but you're taking your responsibilities in stride. Well done sir.

Using the warm weather to get together with some barn friends to dig out a delightful riding track.

February morning skies.

When it's a rare 20° above in February and you decide to hop on a horse for the first time post hip surgery. You know, for science 😁 .

Thanks to Kacie and Kate for the supervision.

When the new barn manager decides to investigate the weekend barn shenanigans.

Everyone meet Lucky 😍

When you explain two-point to your physical therapist and she redesigns your rehab.

11/21/2023

It was bound to happen sooner or later... After a glorious Sep-Oct-Nov of unseasonably warm temps it's dipped down to zero at the farm for the first time this winter. Still wouldn't want to live anywhere else.

Shout out to for the fabulous mohair neck-gator. Sheryl and Kelsi have everything a girl needs to survive winter in Alaska (and still feel pretty too).
