Our OTTB
We are at the Assinboia Downs in Winnipeg watching the horse races on a Saturday night. We are here because of my spouse’s search for an Off The Track Thoroughbred (OTTB). He connected with the owner of the thoroughbred named Roman Humor. This connection was made from the Final Furlong group. The Final Furlong is […]
How High Can We Go?
This trail ride, in the below photo, was a very exciting ride through the coulees of southwest Saskatchewan. I am the second rider in the blue shirt.

On The Ground Horse Play
Lately, my husband and I have been working on a playground for our riding horses. It’s fun and they do need to get used to different objects, sounds and anything they may come across when riding out of an arena. Making our horses aware and less spooky is just making our rides on them more […]
My Heart Says
I miss this young man. This is my eldest son who passed on 15 years ago. He has his little cousin in the saddle with him on his horse Rocky. Grief always keeps my son alive. Grief always has a future. I know grief has readjusted everything . God gave us memories with visuals, like […]
LAVENDER LILAC LOVE
The smell and the joy of lilac bushes when the blooms of lavender colour shows itself. I just run to a bush and sniff a flower until I am drugged. June is the blooming season. Don’t miss it.
