Big Pasture Video!



A Very Windy Friday!

It started out as a beautiful day but ended up a dust storm! The winds were crazy!

A small palm from Tony's Garden. Dave planted it here by our office and Felipe planted the flowers. Today has been seven months since Tony's passing, it's still hard to believe...


Elaine and Willie Nelson had a quick lesson before the wind just got to be too much. I caught this cute photo afterwards- Willie stared at Elaine as she rummaged through her tack room. He knows the treats are in there!


A cute shot of a windblown Dynamite...


The Big Pasture...


Part of Okay Corral...


Iceman out in Okay Corral. He is now living in the herds and doing really well!

Adopted Horse Updates: Fallon and Bombay

These two really nice horses are doing great in their new homes:


Fallon left Shiloh today for his new home in Las Vegas. He hopped right into the trailer and settled right into his new surroundings. I wad told that he already has a new girlfriend! Good news for Fallon!


Bombay recently moved with her adopter from Wyoming to Utah- she looks great!

The Past Few Days...

A very bust last few days...

Cabrillo enjoyed a nice cool hosing after working on the lunge line...

Chia Pet hid under Sally's cart waiting for unsuspecting visitors...


City Center was busy...


Fiesta dozed by the ICU Stall...


Margarita and Aztec supervised Iceman getting his first bath (Iceman did great)...


The turn outs were full and all the horses enjoyed the beautiful Easter weekend weather...


Even Jimmy Dean enjoyed a grooming from hard working volunteers!


While Taquito and Tortilla groomed each other in the Barn aisle...


Sabine rode Slash- he did great and just needs a few weeks of quiet riding for him to gain confidence. He is well broke but gets anxious, so we just slowed it down and he will be doing lots of work under saddle at the walk, learning to relax and enjoy a rider...


Fiesta and Donkey Otie "helped" Robin and Daria check over their girth...


Then Robin gave Tortilla and Taquito a big hug...



Fallon and his owner went for a nice ride- this is a perfect match- Fallon is so relaxed and happy. I think I even caught him smiling today as they rode by!



Mojo chose an interesting place to nap- right behind Jederman's hind legs...


Otie and Cowboy head over to this morning's Breakfast Club...


Charlie hung his head in despair over ever getting in to the Breakfast Club. Maybe one day, Charlie, when you are old and gray and have no more teeth. But for now, as you are fat and healthy, forget it!



A view of The Saloon and part of Little Vacation Village. That is Wanderer Concho there by LVV's water tub...


Angry that he couldn't get into the Breakfast Club, Charlie decided to tear into the bags of donated Equipment that Megan brought out. Move along, Charlie, nothing to see here...
