Hi everyone! I’ve been off the lists for so long – life has been incredibly busy!

New additions to our family include 2 Milking Devon cows, one due to calf in August. They are sweet, gentle and curious and I love hearing them moo! Our newest addition is Oonagh, a black brindle
Irish Wolfhound pup. We brought her home when she was 8 weeks old and she is fantastic!

Bob is a wonderful riding horse, he is being used to give lessons to kids! He and Dugan went to a show yesterday, Bob got an honorable mention and Dugan, who has only been in training for 2 months, pinned in a large class! He will make a stunning show pony for any kid and yes, he is for sale. I’m in AZ with Meg, Daelyn and Madelyn. It’s wonderful seeing them again, I really have missed them!

Everyone went to a horse show right before I got here and Maddie pinned blue in every class! Snow is schooling 3rd level dressage, they have a Gold Medal dressage coach and watching Meg and Snow work totally blows me away! He is everything we thought he could be, and more. Someday I hope to have pictures that do him justice! Maddie is jumping 2′ and is a wonderful little rider! Meg is expecting her first Gypsy foal any day, she bought Mary Miller’s Olivia.

On a personal level, I am walking fairly well and riding again. I set a goal of finishing a competetive trailride, and made it. Dana and I finished about in the middle of a 30 horse entry; we completed every obstacle and it was wonderful!

I miss chatting with all of you; thanks to those who email me.

BTW, I have someone looking for a mare/filly if anyone has one, and we are “sort of” looking for a colt to use for breeding.
