I have a good friend who lives in southern British Columbia. Now, this friend of mine is quite partial to exotic tales, no matter how ridiculous they may sound. In this case, it's about the donkey she once owned when we were nothing but eleven years ...
I have a little ranch up in Alberta, a place where I keep my oldest friends to play with the kids who live on the same range road. I visit frequently and I spend a lot of time there when I do, and it's just like coming home. One of my bimonthly ritu...
If you're like me, you spend a lot of time in your truck. To and fro, forwards and back, you spend so much time on the road that you turn on the radio. But sometimes you need something a little more specialized; if you feel like listening to some good...
I spent the afternoon writing. As many of you do, I’m sure. My writing studio overlooks my horse corral, because more often than not, I’ll find them to be my muses. Sometimes it’s my cat, but it’s usually Saltheart, the horse that looks like a potato...
I had to give up a beloved animal of mine, once. Well, more than once, but this was a first. I could no longer afford the medical needs of a horse I once owned, and it broke my heart to make the decision. She’d be better off with someone else, someone...

If you're here, you probably don't need me to explain to you how important it is these days to get your information out through Twitter. Yours, your mom's, your horse's--wait, what? That's right, today I'm going to show you three Twitter accounts th...
'Tis the season to be reading! That joke's a bit late, huh? Well, whenever it is that you get around to reading this little ol' blog post, you should be reading. You know it, I know it, your horses know it. That's what they whinny at you from across...
When you're out of the saddle and settling down on your warm couch after a long day of horsework (like housework, but with... oh, you get what I'm talking about), one thing you might find yourself having time for is a movie, something to wind down with...
There are two very vivid days that I can recall. The day that a fear of horses sank into my heart, and the day that fear was purged from it. I'm not going to jerk you around here—we're all here because we love horses, and while the start was rocky, ...
