The Hopeful Amateur Hits the Big Times at Rolex Kentucky, Part 2

Tuesday, April 29 2014 by Editor
Well another Rolex has come and gone, but this will certainly be one I will remember fondly for a long time to come. Friday, the second day of dressage, was the only day of the weekend that saw bad weather but that didn’t stop nearly 14,000 people from attending

Road to the Horse 2014

Tuesday, March 25 2014 by Editor
Lexington has been through one of its most trying winters in decades and it is still not over. Sunny, 70 degree days are enjoyed once or twice a week only to be followed by a day or two of bitter cold and even more snow

Trying to express what a beloved mount means to an equestrian is really, really hard.

Monday, March 17 2014 by Editor
In exactly one emotional whirlwind of a month, my life has undergone some tremendous changes.  My long-term boyfriend successfully completed and graduated from one long year of intense Army pilot training-something that tested us but made our relationship stronger in the end.  I also said goodbye to my lease horse, Bentley, and uprooted my life in small town Alabama to move back to Lexington, KY. I know I have mentioned Bentley in previous blogs but I’ve never fully explained how he came to be mine for one wonderful year and why I made the painful but necessary choice not to purchase him.

Amidst a hectic time, I loved every second of my first visit to Ocala.

Wow! It has been an eventful couple of weeks but I finally have a moment to write a little about everything that has been going on in my life. January 25th marked one year since we moved to Enterprise, Alabama

Horseware Ireland is Looking for a Hopeful Amateur to Sponsor!

Tuesday, February 11 2014 by Editor
While checking out grand prix show-jumper Saer Coulter’s Facebook page the other day, I saw a post she shared about a contest being held by one of her prestigious sponsors, Horseware Ireland.  Their “Grassroots Rider” competition is looking for a dedicated, amateur horse and rider duo to add to the Horseware Team, which includes some of the world’s most elite equestrians. The winner will receive a one year sponsorship deal that includes  €10,000  and personalized Horseware Ireland gear for you and your horse to sport around the show grounds.

When There is Only Hope and Horses, Part 2

Wednesday, February 05 2014 by Editor
In my very first post, I wrote about my childhood and how my love of horses began and blossomed during these years. I also wrote about how I had to leave behind my life with horses as a young girl.  Now, I am finishing my story; read the second part of my blog to learn about what has been happening in my young adult life and how I am slowly but surely finding my way back to a life I was born to lead; the life of an equestrian
