Spring has Sprung, even if it hasn't

In celebration of May 1st or because maybe it is finally the end of the "never ending winter" We are going to kick off our season by taking in the first of the training horses this weekend.
We have promised ourselves this season for sure, we are only taking two horses per month each. If your name isn't on the waiting list, be sure to call and make your reservation soon.

Myah and I will be attending Ken McNabb's three day clinic May 21st-23rd in Bismarck if you would like information on attending just send an email or give me a call, I would be glad to pass that on to you.

We will be attending some shows this summer, but mainly we are getting two year olds ready for the ND 50/50 futurity in the fall.

You rarely see me rambling away on the blog anymore, Myah has pretty much taken it over for me. She is doing a wonderful job too ! If you haven't gotten a chance to meet her yet that is a good reason to stop on by for a visit.

Spring is Springing

Finally spring seems just around the corner.
Holy Cow ! I had no idea it has been so long since I posted.
We are gearing up for the training horses. Barn is all cleaned out after the long winter.
Kacey did most of it this year all 53 loads. We are still doing it all by hand
it is just too hard to push that wheelbarrow through the snow.
The outdoor arena needs lot's of work and the pens alongside the barn need to be
cleaned yet. waiting for that to thaw.

Hope everyone fared the winter better than I did. I went into hibernation mode and didn't keep in touch with anyone.

There is already a waiting list for this year and I will not be taking as many as I plan on taking in some horse shows with my own this year. Kacey and I both have 50/50 yearlings and would like to get them out and going. I would also like to take "Rockstar" to a few Paint shows.

Kacey will be helping again this year. We will be taking colts to start. I would like to go to a 60 day minimum on the colts ( we definitely require 60 days for beginning riders.) for more experienced riders we may still do the 30 days. We will still be taking problem horses (however there will be a 30 day minimum for problem horses this year.) I have tried to do them in a shorter time, I am just not satisfied with the results on some of them. I had some tuff ones last year and was expected to do more with them than possible in a shorter time. Riding lessons are still available as well.
