To our boarders and friends: this is just to let you know that everything is OK at the barn after last night's and this morning's torrential rains. Horses, structures, and fences all appear to be fine. I hope all of you sustained no damage at your homes, either!

Lovely ladies out and about today. Thank you, Stephanie!

The arrowleaf balsamroot plants are blooming in full this year. Thank you, Terry, for getting out there with your camera!
