Robin, Sandi, Sarah, Lauren, Yvonne and Michele made beaded horseshoes today. We are making them for the Holidays and will have them up on the website soon. We will also put them into local tack shops and feed stores so if you live in Vegas, keep an eye out!

Donkey Otie helped out...

Some of the finished shoes. They really are unique and beautiful pieces. Each shoe was previously worn by a rescued horse...

Veteran's Day and The Ranch

First off, Happy Veteran's Day to all of our troops and to all who have served our country. We thank you and your families for your sacrifices...

Tony was a WWII Veteran. Here is his gravesite with flowers...

Thank you Tony for serving your country. At age 17, Tony forged his mom's signature so that he could join the Navy. He eventually joined the Submarine Service.

He was a very proud supporter of our troops...

These are stones left on his bench in his Memorial Garden. I am encouraging his fans from around the world to mail me a stone and I will place it on Tony's grave. Small stones can be mailed to me at: Jill Curtis, 2598 Forest City Drive, Henderson, NV 89052. In the Jewish faith, stones are placed on a grave to show that someone visited and that their love and respect is as enduring as a stone...

Back at Shiloh:

A shot of the Gummies eating breakfast. It's almost time for the old guys to wear their blankets at night. Some of our special needs horses are already wearing them...

Elisa and Broadway take a cross rail. I am currently working on new adoption videos...

Thank you to Ed, who braved our barn roof to repair a section. Thanks Ed!

Sunny, waiting for her morning feed in the Barn...

Trying to Get Back to Work...

I am back from my trip and slowly trying to get back to work. I am still having a very hard time and miss Tony more than I can express. So, please bear with me...

With everything that happened in the last few months in my life, I never mentioned that we suspected that Ochocinco, the mare who showed up at our fence line after being dumped in the desert, was pregnant. As we worked to fatten her up, we began to realize that she was only gaining weight in her belly area and no where else. We had her checked by the vet and yes, it was confirmed that she was in foal!

So, meet little Cairo! He was born on October 31, 2010. He is healthy and strong and although we think this is Ochocinco's first foal, she did great and is an excellent mother.

Cairo! He is a paint colt with Appy markings! Where did that come from?

Look at those spots...

He is already having fun in the turn out. Poor Ochocinco is having a hard time keeping up with him...
We cannot believe his markings!

He is already eating (or pretending to eat) some grain with his mom...

Standing tall...

Welcome Cairo!
