I am not, nor ever have been, a western rider. With that being said one of the goals with my young horse Tempi (Temptation ASH) is to not only do regular dressage, but to also do Western Dressage. So I have been very gingerly saddle shopping for a western saddle. My musts: show/equitation seat, not…
Put your sound on to watch the video. This is the second year this has been a problem. (It’s also the second year I’ve had the horses home). I will preface this with we have a residential community with thousands of homes on one side of our property. There are 30 hobby beehives in those…
We had a tandem truckload of concrete chunks (large aggregate rocks) delivered today. HA cute play on words in my subject line. (I know I know, dad joke). This is to remedy the fact that we did a bunch of dirt work to fix grading issues this past year. We are now discovering with all…

Here in Colorado, we are supposed to get a pretty decent winter storm today through tomorrow early morning. In typical Colorado weather person fashion, we are expecting between 0-412 inches. I don’t mind snow, but I do wish it could snow at like 40* instead of the 20s with ridiculous wind we are expecting. I…
