July Update
July 13, 2008
Dear Friends,
Yesterday’s cow working clinic was sure close to perfect for me, good weather, good friends and good riding. Thanks to Nicholas, Laura, Marty, Jody, Rich, Shannon and Ronda for a great day! We even threw a few heal shots as we moved the cows back to pasture. Nicholas is becoming quite the top hand!
The Horsemanship/Yoga clinic and retreat in Silverthorne is this coming weekend, July 19 and 20th. There will be great food and drinks, comfy beds, hot tub along with yoga sessions applied to good horsemanship and then applying good horsemanship to our rides out on the beautiful trails in the mountains and meadows. I will work horses individually on Saturday afternoon also. Lodging, meals and clinic for the weekend is $300.00 and we are trailer pooling up to help cut the cost of fuel. Let me know by Monday (tomorrow) evening if you can join us.
The group lessons on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday (young horse class) mornings are very popular and so much fun. We are all learning from each other and especially our horses. We are working on scheduling some trail rides so we can go out and hopefully beat the July heat! Let us know if you are interested in joining us for any of those and what days work best for you for early morning trail rides. Again, trailer pooling is working great and cuts the cost for all of us. And individual lessons and riding these wonderful horses I have in training are keeping the rest of my day pretty full!
A shipment of Wells Five Star Pads has just arrived, lots of color and thickness choices to choose from, along with lariat/lass ropes from Double Diamond and Max Tack (Randy Winter) halters and leads. More Sunbody hats arrived with big wide brims to shade you on these hotter summer days along with the traditional cattleman crease hats too. We still have a 15 ½ inch McCall Lady Wade, 15 ½ inch Steve Mecum (half breed) and 16 inch Robert Chavez (rough out) wade tree saddles for sale. Thanks to Loren on her purchase of the McCall trail saddle! There are lots of bargains on the 50-75% off table and beautiful, almost new tack that has come in on consignment at low, low prices.
We are going to Granby in Aug for a Ranch Working/Trail clinic Aug 9 & 10 and working on some half day clinics for the last weekend in Aug, let us know what you would like us to schedule, horsemanship (I & II), cow working, ranch roping, trail, colt starting, green horse? Check out our clinic schedule for more information and dates!
Let us know how we can help you with your horsemanship or tack needs. And as always, thank you all so much for your support and business with us!
Stay cool!
Amy
