Shop in your local community as much as you can. Get to know the sales clerks and owners of the stores. It may be this sense of community identity and togetherness that enables small communities to survive against the odds. If solitude is what you desire, your neighbors will likely learn to honor that need, but first they'll have to get to know you well enough to understand your wishes. We hope you will enjoy it as much as we do.
Cold weather is here.
Horses have special needs during the cold weather to assure they will stay healthy and in good condition. Fresh water should be available at all times. Mature horses will drink approximately ten gallons of water per day. By preference, horses prefer a water temperature of 40 degrees F. Maintaining water at this temperature should encourage normal intake. If you are using buckets, the water should be replaced at least two times per day.
