HORSEMAN'S JOURNAL

Good Morning on this snowy day! A good day for getting out there a bit early. 
 Feeding will take a bit more time and pulling blankets is an excellent idea...because...they are going to roll and run!
My lessons have all cancelled; no one wants to cope with the grooming...whoozes! 
So, think I will spend some time in the tack room; want to put some new bits into seasoned bridles and all the blankets need checking for repairs.  I have also put a few halters back on hooks for time to clean them throughly...like today. 
Before I go back to the house to "get a bean"  I will load up the tackroom stove for heating.  Mucking isn't so tough since I'll use the tractor and just touch up most stalls.
I know lots of folks who will be bored today, having to stay inside.  Lots of grumbling going on in the wide world about starting cars and not keeping appointments...some of the actions I WON'T HAVE to deal with today.
I am grateful to God for Snowdays!  HippyHip...

DIRECTIONS INSIDE 2010

As promised:  please read the new headings in the sidebar; this is where the site is going for the next year!  We are all excited with these directions!
If you are burning to post some ideas and/or suggestions to the broader community we would appreciate your considering requesting our 'copy' guidelines and then sharing your words of wisdom with us.
The Heritage Horses Internet's Sub-Club Staff will be writing some columns: the HorseMaster's Journal ; the Ethics and Philosophies of the Sports-Horse; and the HSW daily posting of "Lessons/suggestions".
We will search for teachers, trainers, vets, farriers, managers and other interesting Guest Writers to include on-site.
Shoot!  We will probably even post some Cowgirl Cuisine receipes to go with those camfires & horse stories...we hope you have fun and also learn a few new ideas along the way...wfh, webmaster

2010 AWAITS...

OK,OK,OK...I have taken awhile; well, that is what happens when one gets some 'wisdom'  (years) and thinks things through before taking the jump!
The ads for this site beginning  a new lifestyle are out on the eBay store page now.  The HHI ads for used and new Equine items will be set by the end of the next few days (the  10th hopefully) so these will be available for our Members, at a discount , along with the regular eb customers.
This means that I will be able to begin outlining and listing the learning sections of this Club.  And...I want to also mention the other sources and types of information we will be listing here.
So, just keep dropping in over the next few days, checking it all out and reading, reading, reading...It is the Beginning of a new Year...walk on...PhF
