where dignity never grows old

 

About Us

Chris

             I keep the farm running.  I feed and water the horses every day.  I keep the pastures mowed down, put out grass seed and fertilizer, and mend the fences when Mother Nature blows trees on them.  Most of my time away from work as a superintendent for a construction company is spent building something around the farm.  I built our house three years ago.  I have rebuilt almost 90% of the fencing on the farm, as well as some new pastures.  A new hay barn is currently under construction, and a barn remodeling is scheduled for the summer of '05.  When I make the time to enjoy my horses, I trail ride, rope the occasional calf, and attend as many horsemanship clinics as possible.  When I ride, I am spending time with my wonderful wife and beautiful one year old daughter.  I can't wait until she is old enough to ride on her own.

           I have been enamored by horses as long as I can remember.  I took riding lessons all through my childhood.  As a young adult I bought my first horse, Annie, and things have snowballed from there.  Annie has been my greatest teacher.  We have done a little of a lot of different things: combined training, dressage, cow working, ranch roping, countless horsemanship clinics, and I have her eight year old son.   Annie is now 25 years old and is semi retired. 

            Chris and I  have five horses, two ponies, two Golden Retrievers, and a one-year-old daughter, Dylan.  That keeps me busy.  I am very fortunate to get to stay at home on the farm and take care of everyone.  I am also very lucky to have a stay at home mother around the corner who baby-sits Dylan, which allows me to oversee the health care of the horses, hold for the vet, farrier, and dentist.  I also teach a couple of lessons a week, ride, and occasionally drive one of my ponies.

My life is a dream come true.
