September 25 Blog Summer 2017, Week 17 Well our official season has ended but we are still up to our usual shananagans here and I thought I would post and update. We had a wonderful week of staff bonding and hanging out. The week included 55-65 mile an hour winds which made even the easy tasks tricky. On Tuesday we dewormed all of our horses for the second time this season. It is a fun day as we get to handle each of our horses and give them lots of love. We took down pack camp and deep cleaned the saloon. More ...
September 11 Blog Summer 2017 - Week 14 Well we just said goodbye to another group of amazing people. This morning was like saying goodbye to family.

The wine was flowing this week, the group had some fun nights in the Saloon. We had four amazing groups of people ...
July 24 Blog A Rooster, Kids Growing Up and a Rodeo (Ranch Update) Exciting news this week! Our Rooster, who we all love so dearly (cough cough), produced a child! We were all skeptical, so Zach & Cyndy put eggs in an incubator and one of them hatched. It is our first chick here in many years, Zach has named it Peeper and he or she is very cute. We had two groups of return guests this week. Shirite was back for her second trip with her grandpa and brought along dad for his first trip. She has been practicing roping since last year and was able to try ...
