Major is a lot of fun. I am hoping when he is gelkded that he and Little Man will get to be friends. Manny is very protective of "his" mares and thinks the Arabian girls have always belonged to him!

Lighted Candles


It was early summer the first night I saw him. He rode in complete silence and held the saddle horn firmly with both hands. That may have been the night when he first began to grip his hands tigthtly around a whole new world.
What struck me that night was… Continue

Simple Things


Just wanted to share one of my favorite photos. I took this picture last weekend when I wanted to save my last roses of the year. I had a wonderful time the weekend before in Hannibal, Missouri at the Folk Life Festival. I picked up these pretty antique bottles for 1.00 each as a donation for the his… Continue

New Addition

Yesterday was a big day for the websites own administrator Ponygal. After a whirlwind trip out to Wisconsin on Friday morning a new little mini has come to be loved and stolen her heart. He has a "barn name" of Major Promise" as this little guy has a few problems to be sorted out. We will be getting some pictures up soon. He is a little three year old Pintaloosa. We have hopes he will be a "major" help in our "Missions for Minis" program that we are starting up.

Little Man went on his first mis… Continue

Small Miracles


Funny how when you think you are going to help some kids with therapy on horseback you find that you are getting as much therapy as they are..., maybe more. I loved the time I spent with them all. Laughter, smiles and joyful faces all around. I liked seeing the parents standing at the gate and waving. I think my… Continue

hi, unfortunately i have not taken any clinics or anything, i have only done the home study.i would absolutely love to do a clinic some time though.yes cardinal ranch does do clinics and what not although i just learned of this not too long ago.it is also a good couple of hours away from me and i am on maternity with a 10 month old son for a little longer so it has been a bit hard to get out and do much the past little while unfortunately.but i will be moving him closer so over the winter i will be spending ALOT more time with him! as for the weather, ya, it's definitely pretty cold up here some days still no snow yet though, where chance is is considerably higher then us though so when we go to see him it feels about 10 degrees colder and it's definitly a lot windier and chance doesn't do well in the wind, he never has so we will be much happier once he's moved.

Hi, I am glad your sister's new little guy is doing well and doesn't have a clubbed foot. Do you think you will be able to drive him?
I have been having a time of it lately. My son just got over the nasty flu. He was sick for a week and ran a fever for three days straight. I have been spending more time on the computer, playing with photo's, since my son has been sick. We have been stuck in the house!
My horses have also been having a time of it. Prophecy has some kind of a cough and is on SMZ's. Bentley got an eye infection and Fool is showing me signs of an ulcer and has to be on free choice, 24 hour a day, hay. He is getting very fat! LOL!!!! The driving club is having a drive on Sunday, but I will not be going because no one is feeling well. Needless to say, I am very upset about all this! Butterscotch is the only one who is fine!
