The three musketeers (Dash, Sassy, and Max) greeting students before lesson time. And puppy snuggles before leaving. Beautiful horses, snuggley puppies, and wonderful kids. That always makes for a great day.

This pedigree is something I haven't seen in a very very long time. Many who have known me since childhood remember my first horse Orben Ameer. Out of Blessing... who was Sired by Abu Alla. Orben was Sired by San El Shazamm (Mister topper and real McCoy lines)... and yes I did all that from memory. He was my "here horse crazy kid... have a horse for your 10th birthday... btw he's afraid of everything but ESPECIALLY humans) and was the start of it all. When someone reached out to me to help with this mare I said yes before I even looked at her pedigree. Imagine my shock. And happiness. Honestly she looks nothing like Orben who was alost a look-a-like of Abu Farwa. Mostly, she looks more like Fadjur. She is also terrified of everything. So much so you can see her shaking like a chihuahua when a human is even near. She is a tad underweight (was rescued from an auction by some folks with a good heart and started the process of bringing her back to a healthy weight) and has scars all across her withers, back, and hips from either extreme rain rot or extreme sunburn). She will have a long road a head of her. But I feel she will come around and be a great little mare. Welcome Little Lu!

I was hoping this video would have Bend River Ricky on it. Or the mare Star of Rapture. But it does have Rapture himself. Anyone else remember him?

I made a Ranching rookie mistake today. Special thanks to Bobbi and her whole family for running the the farm to help lug water buckets out to the horses as all out water lines are frozen! Yes even two feet under that have all frozen and no water in the barns. I've only ever had to do this once before but I've been on farms and ranches long enough to know about SUPER COOLING and not to use hot water but instead just a tad bit of warm to make sure the horses do not dive into cold water, but not so hot that it will super cool and instantly turn to ice!
How does that happen? The temp out side is so darn cold that the warm water chills so fast it forms crystals. I was asked a question about where the tubs came from and I gently tapped the bottom of the tub with my toe to indicate "well this one..." and CRRRRRRAAAAACCCCCKKKKKKKLLLLLLEE! The sound was unreal as we stood and watched all those water buckets full of warm water we just drove from the house start to instantly turn to a solid at the bottom of the tub. Luckily somehow there must have been a second temperature difference and it only affected about one to two inches of the bottotm of the tub and the horses were still able to drink off the top. Would have been wild to get a video of it.
A supercooled liquid is one in which the temperature is below its normal freezing point or suddently dropped temperature too rapidly, but the liquid has not solidified. This is because the liquid needs something to initiate the freezing process - something to encourage a number of liquid molecules to get together in a regular pattern, which they do in a crystal rather than moving freely in a liquid.
The process water undergoes to become crystals, or ice, is called nucleation. Nucelation occurs when molecules in the water clump together, forming a crystal-like nucleus. Once formed, other molecules can latch on to the nucleus. See if you can Watch this video on twitter, and if not I'll try to find another video of the process. So glad it didn't take the enter tub!!!
“How cool is my water that I left in the car overnight?? SUPERCOOLed. To the point it instantly froze when I hit it against a surface! . . ”

Buckskin colt
He is going to be Huge! Isn't he the cutest Half-Arabian buckskin you've ever seen?
So excited for the weather to get back to normal and resume training routines. I'm really excited to see how these two progress. Olivia and Hailey.
Callie and Bryn
Today was the funnest ride I have had in years... possibly the funnest ever. I took the new girl out to see how she would handle the snow. And she was playful and loving it. So then I had our wonderful new assistant trainer Hailey drag our sled in front of her and ride her on each side of the sled. And then dragged it with no one. Then allowed Hailey to get on, then kids to get on. She was frisky and playful and had a few turns around the pasture before pushing with her nose toward the barn to tell me she was starting to get a little tired of the game. The horse had a blast, the kids had a blast. I had a smile on my face I haven't had in a very long time. Best day EVER!

Have you seen them yet? Our exciting new additions to the ranch? Makes me feel like we are a real farm, not just a riding school! Meet Henry and Sophie!
Melanie and Ginger...
This horse and her team of riders did amazingly well... horse's first ever horse show, both riders first ever horse show. The horse has been here less than 90 days. Her owner coined a new term for her... she said when she got here she was "fun broke"... meaning you could climb on her but if you asked her to go in a direction you wanted instead if where she wanted she would kick and buck. She had also never had a bit in her mouth. "Fun broke" I'm gonna use that. So proud of our team this year. They really pulled together.
Our horses clean waters
When your 4H kids want to show what an amazing job they did cleaning the water buckets 🤣❤
Electric gate
Fire season is upon us. Need to make sure everyone knows how to open and close the electric fences so they are not on the ground potentially causing a grass fire.
Babbett 30 days
I didn't post this the day of... but Babbet's last day with us, doing Cavaletti with Bryn. She came in nervous and defensive but was broke to a saddle in three days and was doing trail obstacles like barrels, pass thrus, and step over at the end of the 30 days. Such a great girl.
Babbet and Bryn moving forward.
Babbet and Bryn striking out on their own without a lead line. Babbet is learning she needs to keep walking until told other wise, and that legs mean move forward. Future Horse trainer to take my place.
Babet's first day
Meet Babet!
