I have a new nephew that was born 30 days ago. They live in my town and I have hopes of introducing him to the horse world. My boy Elvis has the perfect personality to have a child in his life. I have bought not just one, but two saddles that I hope to put this boy on. I am sure that many of...

Country Rds Hughstons Rio Grande 3 yr old, 33" Silver Dapple Pinto Stallion. I wasn't really looking for an under stallion, but when I saw the sale ad for him, I had to go look at him. The last year I showed Max in Pinto, they often put the stallions and geldings together in the same halter...

I didn't see any topics about this weekend's Las Vegas show. I only got to watch snippets of it on Friday and Saturday, but I got to watch the entire day on Sunday. (We did our Easter dinner on Sat night) After attending the driving clinic with Austin Van Wyck earlier in the year, I felt like...

How do I find the show record for my new R horse? I don't have a current R membership yet. His name is D&S Just Honky Dory.

Ok, that is it...how do I find an AMHR horse's show record?

OK, you experienced show people, I need your help. With my previous horse, Max, I used black makeup over his brow and on his muzzle with some clear highlighter and it looked wonderful. He was a silver bay with a little star and a snip on his face. With my new horse, Patch, who is a...

There is a new boy in my barn. He will be my main show horse this year, doing all-around at the Pinto shows. Meet Scott Creek Monarchs A Patch E, aka Patch. He is a 36" 2005 gelding by Sierra Dawn Unos Monarch. He is a bit "fluffy" in more ways than one! He is in the barn now, on a diet...

I have been wishing I could have joined you. I would love to hear about it. The last I heard it was taking you forever to get through Seattle because of traffic. What'd you do? Where'd you stay? Who was there? Tell all!

I would love to see more offspring of Love Me Tender. The pictures I have seen of many of the sons and daughters of this stallion are beautiful. I want to see if his traits are carrying on in the grandget. Here is my new picture of the grandson I have, Scott Creek Unos Love Me True,now a two...

We had a wonderful drive in the Applegate today, at Schmitt Family Vineyard. There were nine horses and drivers that joined us for a lovely day cruising around and through this pretty vineyard. By the GPS, we traveled almost 4 miles on the gently sloping hills. The gardens and ponds were so...

For all you folks that are attending the Pinto World, could you report back to us poor schlubs that didn't get to go. I am very interested in hearing all about it! I want reports on the combined classes and how you felt about them. Plus all the other wonderful stuff we are missing!

We are doing the last of our series of three workshops. This time it is a grooming and halter workshop. We are getting this done just in time for the first shows in our neck of the woods. Luckily, my horse will be the "demo" horse for this workshop. It is very timely, as I sprained my back...

The Driving Workshop was held last Sunday at Pax Diem in Eagle Point, OR. WOW! What a successful event. Total attendance was 7 beginners and 5 experience drivers. We had folks from as far away as Redding, CA and Bonanza, OR. This was a "Friends Helping Friends" type of workshop, designed...
