So very excited to have 2 new young talented working students, Sadie Fowler, and Nicole Overbay( Nicole was actually here for a few years, and won her bronze medal on an older horse several years ago, and now she’s back with 3 horses to win her silver medal). The icing on the cake is to have Lindsay Brooks come back, who was with me for over a decade winning bronze and silver medals until her older gelding Nordic finally passed away a few years ago. Here she is with a new dance partner as is Nicole, arriving yesterday from Florida! Sadie’s new 4th level mount was also on the same van. Lots of work to do this winter! I cannot wait to dive in!! ❤️

Interesting morning. Zero chance of precipitation, and I walk outside and a black cloud comes over head as the suns rising with beautiful colors of pink and orange. Then this rainbow forms and grows with intensity, and the tree tops go red!!! My farm has often been a hot spot for rainbows, but it never gets old!!❤️

I was very touched to see the following post from Arvidson Garceau on the Five Stars Farm page. Thank you, Heidi, for your thoughtful and informative words:

“5 stars for Five Stars Farm and Mary Howard!

"Our journey with Mary started about 3 1/2 years ago. Our daughter’s thirst for learning and Mary’s endless supply of knowledge, experience and success through the highest levels of dressage took our daughter from training level to earning her Silver Medal in just two show seasons. Mary listened to our daughter’s goals/dreams, traveled the country to find the perfect horse for her, and made those goals a reality.

"Mary possesses a stellar resume: Gold Medalist at the Pan-American Games, short-listed rider for the United States Olympic dressage team, successful competitor in Europe and the USA, and highly respected teacher and trainer. Her students have competed successfully at all levels including Grand Prix, and many have won their Bronze, Silver and Gold medals while working with her.

"Whether you’re looking to become a better rider, fine tune your skills or pursue your medals, Mary has a program to fit your needs. Her dedication to happy horses, the sport of dressage, and her clients is unwavering. She runs a quiet, no drama barn that operates like a finely tuned clock. Everyone is so kind and inviting, and you feel at home when you’re there. I give Five Stars Farm a five star review!”
