🔥 Update 🔥

Some wind changes overnight have directed the Western front have put the smoke directly over us. Thankfully the morning has seen relative humidity up to 75%, slowing the fire progression.

Air quality remains at unhealthy levels and relative humidity this afternoon has dropped to 26-40%. I expect the fire to pick up and while we are only 9.6 miles from the head, there is a lot of rough terrain and scarce fuels between us.

This afternoon will be the drive force as to whether we start evacuating our animals tomorrow. We have a temporary home for our horses on the Western valley floor and are working on locations for our pigs, goats, and chickens. Cats and dogs will remain with us and evacuate with at that point in time. Our only priority is our animals as everything else can be replaced.

Family & Friends, Christy Schram and I are safe. The Aspen Acres Fire is about 10 miles from us, but the wind is pushing it in the opposite direction. I've been keeping a close eye on the backend and checking its slow progression often. We have folks ready and willing should we need to evacuate our animals. Prayers be with the many families that have lost so much already!

We are so excited to share this amazing opportunity for kids this summer! 🐴💛

Veterans Rescue Ranch is proud to be partnering with some truly amazing ladies this year to offer horseback riding lessons, summer horsemanship camps, and continued equine assisted learning sessions for our community.

💯What I love most about working with kids is how they show up—curious, open, and ready to learn. There’s something really special about creating a space where they can grow, build confidence, and connect… not just with horses, but with themselves and each other.

👭And I truly can’t say enough about the women I get to partner with. They bring so much knowledge, heart, and life into this work. We share a passion for growth, healing, and building meaningful community—and it shows in everything we do together.

📚As many of you know, I’m back in school full-time pursuing my Master’s in Social Work, so I’ve had to be intentional about what I take on this year. I’m grateful that we’re still able to offer a little something for everyone:
✨ Kids riding lessons & summer camps
✨ Equine Therapy/EAL sessions
✨ Women’s Support & Prayer Group (1st & 3rd Thursdays)

Check out the flyer for details and reach out if you have questions—we’d love to have your kiddos join us this summer! 🐎🌞
