So yesterday it snowed by me and the weather forecasters predicted that by early afternoon the temperature would drop 20 degrees. Because of that, I had figured that riding was not going to happen on Friday. Lucky for me, weather is a very imprecise science so they were wrong! It took some problem solving to [...]

in a good way. I just got one of my GMO news letters and in it there was a very tentative 2010 show schedule. I am not kidding you when I tell you that I got so excited when I saw it that I squealed! I still don’t know what I want to do about [...]

Or should the title be “Gen’s New Shoes cost more than Manolo Blahnik’s which means I will never buy a pair of nice shoes for myself”. As you all know, I was not looking forward to shoes going onto my barefoot horse. That being said, I think it was totally the right thing to do [...]

So I went to visit my family for Christmas as I do every year. My family is not located anywhere near where I live. For one week a year I trade in green rolling hills for the vastness of the Southern Arizona desert. Even though I am Mexican I do not speak Spanish. I am [...]
