While Carrara doesn’t get the extensive turn out opportunities afforded to her at my stable stateside in North Carolina, she does have a nice large window looking out on Anky’s outdoor (which is currently down while construction is going on) but beyond this she does get to watch the horses in the fields and see … Read More
Wow! What a Saturday night!?! I met an awesome new person whom I completely admire his passion for bringing up youth in the sport of dressage and driving horses to the underprivleged intercity kids and so many more reasons like he’s just a wickedly funny Brit, Mr. Dane Rawlins.

So I don’t have/watch TV stateside but I’ve been watching, actually listening in the background, to some MTV here and discovered my favorite German band.

Currently their offices are located in this temporary building while the construction is going on but the new offices at the front of the indoor arena appear to be coming along quite nice and sound like they will certainly … Read More
There’s tons of building activity going on at Stal Anky and this crane was working today to put more of the arena roof on. It’s great practice for showing and bomb proofing your horse! Again, again, again… such a great lesson today with Anky and Carrara. It’s really starting to gel now. I’m getting a … Read More
