Greetings from another sunny day in Arizona. We have been having a wonderful time and are torn with feelings of homesickness and dread of returning to cold weather and bad footing. Last week we went to St John’s HT here is Arizona and had a fatastic time! It has been dumbed, “red neck eventing” and [...]

Spring Training
This past weekend WSH spent a day coaching at Grass Ridge in Sonoita, Arizona. We then stopped in Tucson to visit family followed by a Spring Training baseball game in Phoenix! Here’s a little slideshow to give you a taste of the weekend. Enjoy!
First event and more to come!
Karen and I had a great time with friends (thanks to Janelle and Heather’s help) and nice horses at Three Day Ranch last week. Our horses put in great dressage and show jumping while a little slow on the cross country. We are now looking ahead to all the fun stuff on the calendar. [...]
March Madness
Greetings from the sun! We are in the midst of March madness. Someone is flying in or out practically every day in March and we are loving the activity. We have 6 horses, lessons, friends and family all month. We are busy training (for something all the time it seems) or cooking, running or just [...]
Getting settled…sort of…finally?
Greetings from Wasatch in the Sun. We have been here for 2 full weeks and finally feel like we may be in full swing. With 4 horses clipped, pulled, shod, bathed and 2 more in full work, all 6 are looking good. Yesterday, mum and I took a few to Bellisima Ranch in Cave Creek [...]

The horses are still getting used to the change in landscape, trains (goes right by the barn and arena multiple times a day,) rabbits, pigs, and cows! Josh is [...]
Happy New Year
Greetings from the winter wonderland. 3′ of new snow just after Christmas followed by a week of -20 to 5 degree weather McCall is not a great place to try and ride horses full time in the winter <shocking!> The last few days have warmed up into the 20′s and I have regained my sanity. [...]
USEA Annual Meeting
I did not come back with a tan, even though the weather was all sun and warm. I did not come home with any Christmas gifts, even though the convention center was adjacent to a great shopping area. I did not come home with sore muscles, even though I am “training” for a mountain marathon [...]
Looking forward to 2011
Happy December! Now that we are in the home stretch for 2010 we are looking forward to a fun filled 2011! This week several of us got together to toast a fantastic year of horses and friends; old and new. It was wonderful to have so many like minded souls stuffed into our little [...]
November 30
I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! Josh and I had a wonderful time in Utah with friends. The weather was a little dicey getting back and forth so I flew. After all the hours in the truck this fall, it felt great to fly! Unfortunately the temps were too low to do much when [...]
