Last night we had two horses get injured and incur veterinary care due to someone not double checking to make sure gates were secure after going through pastures. I understand accidents happen, BUT....this could have been avoided. PLEASE, PLEASE be mindful when taking your horses in and out of paddocks to prevent occurrences like this.

They always say it takes a village and I am so blessed to have the village of the BEST boarders that I do at Hillview! They are always here for us and each other and today is no exception! Shout out especially to a couple of my awesome teens, Greta and Nara, who came to ride and noticed all the horses basking in the sun - they enjoyed their afternoon and when they were ready to leave noticed one of the horses was still lying down - approx. 3 hours later. Upon further inspection they realized something was definitely wrong and called me right away. We had just finished sorting practice for the day and were on our way home. It was clear that the horse was having a colic episode so I called the vet to meet me. It didn’t look good when I got here and we weren’t able to get the horse up. Finally, after some meds and pentamine, we were able to get her up and moving. Having a horse down for that long is never a good thing. But for now she’s doing great And I will watch her through the night. Thank God for horse, loving young girls who are always paying attention to the horses here, they most likely saved this horse’s life! Thanks everyone who helped tonite - love you all so much!

Reading books daily brings many benefits, improving both intellectually and emotionally. Here are 10 reasons why you should read books every day:
1. Expand your knowledge: Reading exposes you to new information and deepens your understanding of various topics such as culture, history, science, art, and everyday life.
2. Enhance critical thinking and analysis: Regular reading improves your ability to reason, analyze, and solve problems logically and creatively.
3. Improve writing and communication skills: Exposure to a wide range of vocabulary and sentence structures helps you refine your expression and writing abilities.
4. Reduce stress and anxiety: Reading helps reduce stress by transporting you into different worlds, allowing your mind to relax and unwind.
5. Develop focus and patience: Reading requires concentration and patience to follow complex narratives or concepts, improving these skills over time.
6. Boost imagination and creativity: Reading, especially fiction, stimulates your imagination and enhances creativity by helping you visualize scenes, characters, and scenarios.
7. Improve memory: Reading encourages you to remember details about characters, plots, and information, which strengthens your memory retention.
8. Develop critical thinking: Many books, particularly those on science, philosophy, or politics, challenge you to think deeply and develop your critical reasoning abilities.
9. Inspire and motivate: Self-help books, biographies of successful individuals, or inspiring stories can provide motivation and guidance for your own life.
10. Increase empathy and social skills: Reading about other people’s lives and emotions helps you understand and empathize with them, which enhances your ability to connect with others socially.

Reading daily is a positive habit that benefits your mental health and fosters personal growth.
