Our farrier came last week to trim our horses and mini’s . Our working pupil assisted with the task and found that the mini’s were somewhat feisty. We recently welcomed a new adult rider who is eager to learn and is doing exceptionally well. On Saturday, Matt, our TB was more inclined to stop than go, but he eventually realized that he could not get away with being lazy. Our pupil, who is an intermediate rider, took instruction well and made progress with Matt, ultimately achieving a nice collected canter. Horse’s can have off days like we do. Patience is the keyword and to be firm . 😊

Danny does not want to be left out. He wants to be sure that everyone has a great Halloween. 🎃

I'll be in the barn.❤️
“When people have come to visit over the years
they commonly hear from me "I'll be in the barn."
When life gets hard I'll be in the barn.
When things are just right I'll be in the barn.
When the sun shines
The rain falls
Or snow covers the ground
I'll be in the barn.
If things seem to be falling apart or if I'm
celebrating the simple things, I'll be in the barn.
When I'm looking for answers or trying to clear my mind, I'll be in the barn.
When I'm looking for myself, I'll be in the barn.
If I'm working or trying to relax, I'll be in the barn.
Even when I'm not in the barn my mind drifts there, I find myself thinking about being in the barn...
It's where I keep my riches
All my wins and my failures
Every one of my hopes, dreams, hardships and
memories.
You can find them all in the barn, buried in the hay, hiding under a halter, spilling out of the feed bins,or glimmering with dust in the evening light.
I may be covered in dust, dirt, feed, hair, and hay, smell of sweat and manure, and sometimes there may be blood or tears but I'll be there. I'll be in the barn.
So if your wondering where to find me, I'll be in the barn. If I'm not there I promise I'm on my way.”

So love my barn time
Even cleaning the stalls and listening to the horses eat seems to bring peace to my soul❤️
So love this horse…
Shiners Got Swagger ❤️

Although we had expected more children to attend our Halloween event, we made the most of it. Everyone still had a good time . Danny our pony loved the attention.

Many people ask us about our pony Danny.  Danny is a rescue. He is around 40 . He is full of life and lets you know when he needs to be fed . He loves kids and his eyes light up when they come to the barn. He will stop eating just to say hello. He definitely is not a pony that takes his time going to the pasture he will walk you . ❤️

We've fallen behind on some of our posts. Lessons have been busy lately, despite cool and windy weather conditions. Fortunately, our horses have adapted well. We've welcomed new students and enjoy working with them. We offer adult lessons, with weekday availability and Saturday appointments. Our hourly rate is $50, weather permitting.
