He's HERE!!!

Bubba is HOME!!!
These pictures were taken last week when Eddy got home with the new boy. We're very excited. When Pete Bowling of Oasis Ranch in California says he'll work it's good enough for us! Stop by and say hi when you get a chance!
God Bless,
Eddy and Deb

WINTER IS BACK!!!

Well, it figures....

Eddy left for the west coast on Thursday to drop some horses off and pick up Bubba. Since he left I've had 2 "jail breaks" and the weather has changed from 40-50 degrees with sunshine to 20 degrees with 30 mph wind and SNOW!!

We're excited to get Bubba home and we also purchased a well bred little red mare in foal to him. Sugars Little Calgal is a 1991 model by Smart Little Calboy. She's due to foal the first part of March so we'll have a "Bubba" baby to show everyone. Part of the plan with Bubba is to cross him back on some of our Smart Little Lena bred girls and this should give us an idea how that will work.

The other "Boyz" are getting all rev'd up for breeding season since our weather had been warm and sunny enough that some of the young mares are cycling.... No doubt all of the 4 leggeds are wishing for the speedy return of the sun too. Honky Tonk CD and Call Me Playgun have been team sorting a little- they seem to like it and it's a nice change of pace from cutting- even if it's pretty similar. The old man, Nu Profit, spends his time watching everything and commenting on his likes and dislikes from his corner stall. At 25 years old, he's still pretty sure he can keep all those youngsters in line!

Our friend, Bud Fox, in California has decided to cut back on his horse family so there are several well-bred prospects available for purchase. I'll be listing them on the website- so check back soon.

I think that's all the news for now- it's time for hot chocolate!
