Hi Everyone!

Aaahhhhh, the time change, an equestrians favorite time of year. A couple of friends and myself went out for a ride late ride yesterday. It was so nice not to have it get dark so early, now go away wind !

This Thursday is St. Patrick's Day, if you know of any restaurants serving our favorites feel free to post it on our Facebook page so everyone knows where to go.

Hope everyone has a fantastic week.
