Every stall has been dug out, reset, and is being rebuilt from the ground up… new rock, improved drainage, and a solid foundation. Phase by phase, we’re bringing this place back the right way.

Plant it. Work it. Pray over it. Wait for it. It’s worth it. Trust the process… even when it just looks like we’re playing in the dirt.

If it could talk… this harley rake would have some STORIES.

Everything that didn’t belong in the pasture is currently wrapped up in the front of this machine.

Not every night out here is loud or busy or full of sledgehammers and sawzalls! Sometimes it’s just a guitar, some saddle scrubbin’, and Trout supervising from the background like he owns the place (he does).

These are the moments in between the chaos… and honestly, they might be our favorite part. We can’t wait until we get to share these nights with all of you!

We don’t just tear things down…
we also take our high fives very seriously around here.

Wall: gone.
Morale: high.
High Five Form: under review.

Apparently there’s a proper way to high five, and we’ve got a full demonstration on it now.

We’ve been a little quiet lately… mostly because if we stop moving for five minutes, we might realize how much we still have to do!

So instead… we just keep going.

Currently in the trenches… literally… very important work happening down there as new waterlines are being installed!

It’s a little chaos, a lot of dirt, and somehow it’s all starting to come together.

We’ve had SO many requests for boarding information that have driven us to work extra hard so that we can reopen the barns as soon as possible and friends, we are getting SO close!

Stick around… We’re getting there and boarding information will be posted SOON!

Step One: put post in the ground.
Step Two: repeat Step One about ten thousand times.

After all the rain last night, had to stop and snap this pic of the pastures starting to turn green again…. Little by little, things are coming back to life around here.
