We plan on competing in our first 50 mile endurance ride in May. He’s only 8 so I’ve been bringing him along slowly just doing the 25 mile rides (and because I honestly wasn’t sure If i could do a 50!), but we are ready! Lots of trail and arena time before then. Photo by Robin Leigh Burns

My new year's riding resolution is to join our local show association and attend as many of the shows as I can. #horsenation photo credit: A really nice lady who was standing by the in gate and said "ok sure!" When I desperately shoved my phone at her while trotting into the class… #wasntprepared #aqhaproud #westerndressage #ranchriding #mare #huntinforchocolate

1/365 This year I’ve decided I’m going to participate in project 365 and post a photo of my life every day in an effort to enjoy everything I have going for me. Atlas is already over it, but he’s still handsome regardless. #project365 #dayone #january #photochallenge #horsenation
