We have a six year old mare that has been driving for about two 1/2 years. She has done breed shows, a 4th of July parade, given little kids cart rides etc. About a year ago we took her to a friends farm for a day of driving. She bolted almost as soon as I got in the cart. We thought a bee...

I took our 5 year old 25" A/R red roan stallion to the Emeritus ACLF last weekend. One of the residents wrote a book about horses and called around asking people with minis to come. We arrived to a very crowded front lobby area filled with residents using wheelchairs and walkers. Boss was a...

We are not expecting any foals this year so I have a foaling season to revamp. We have two wireless barn cams in the barn but between the distance, concrete house walls and metal barn roof the reception is crappy. My dream system would have cameras mounted on the exterior of the barns pointing...

Some of you may have read a previous post about a equine reading program that I was starting at the high school where I work as a Guidance Counselor. Our new Principal came Monday and encouraged me to get it up and going right away. So today we went to the mini auction in Ocala to see if there...

Some of you may know that Gary owns a custom cabinet business here in Florida. Unfortunately, the new home business has disappeared in our area (less than 5 permits a month for over a year now). Although he has kept busy doing small remodeling jobs, custom furniture, etc. those are not...
