There are a lot of little things you can do on your colts that will contribute to their success as a saddle horse in whatever field you choose for them. I will admit, that it has taken me many years to appreciate these “little” things and realize their importance. Please don’t be hard-headed like me. […]
Setting Goals
March 12, 2016
Jenn Zeller
I’ve struggled for quite some time with setting goals for myself. If I set one, I seem to fail at it, and I realized that it’s because I’ve tried to make my goals progress oriented. For a while I stopped setting goals altogether and have often felt like a fish out of water. Or a wanderer with […]

I know that most of us see the world in color. And colors are gorgeous. I love color. But sometimes, when you’re taking a photograph, or trying to make art, black and white is the way to go. Personally, black and white photographs are my favorite. They allow you to see so much more – […]

Jenn Zeller
While most rational people (not ranchers or photographers mind you), are snuggled in their warm homes during a snow-storm, we are out feeding cows, horses, opening water tanks, or we’re packing a camera out to see what sort of shots we can get of our critters in the snow. These are just a few that […]

Jenn Zeller
I love winter. I love Holidays. And that Christmas and New Years happen during winter (at least in our part of the world), is even better. I’m not sure Jake feels the same way. Though he doesn’t seem to mind the snow. The coat of an English Shepherd is kind of made for this sort […]
