It's now been about a year since the last time I rode. I cannot believe it has been that long. I am dying to go riding again. Unfortunately, as it often happens, I am out of the habit of riding, which makes it difficult to start up again. I didn't ride while I was pregnant, and I now go thr[...]
I see this question all over the internet. "What do I do to become a horse professional?" usually coming from a teenager or someone very early in their career. I understand - you love horses and want to have a lifetime with them. Working with horses would be so fulfilling, and you know you'd love yo[...]
Did you know there's a museum devoted to the sport and culture of equestrianism? Okay, so it does include other things, but there's a lot of horse going on here. It's called the National Sporting Library and Museum, and it's located in hunt country/horse country, Middleburg Virginia. They offer[...]

Have you ever noticed that (usually) the older a rider gets, the more fearful they get? They'll even tell stories of when they were young, jumping wheel barrows or picnic tables, galloping through people's yards, or doing backflips off their horse? When I was a kid, I just did anything I felt like d[...]
I was browsing around some farms in the event that we decide to move and I just kept increasing the price until I was looking at the most gorgeous farms. The magnificent homes, the expansive properties and of course, the amazing equestrian facilities. All things to drool over. That evolved[...]
The wait is over - There is a Stu update. See his video below to see the gripping tale of what he has been up to recently. https://youtu.be/unPg15JG-f4
I'm not a USEF member (I'm way too casual currently) so while I was vaguely aware of Safe Sport. I wasn't really paying attention because exactly none of it applied to me. Then, this morning I found out that Robert Gage has passed away, and it sounds like a likely suicide. He had been banned from US[...]
I always find it interesting to learn why people buy the things they do. "Such and such is soooo perfect!" they will say. But why? What unique needs did the person have to make that choice?
