I'm kind of bored so I'm going to explain something about this photograph. I got this horse when I was 13 years old. I was 30 before my mother told me it was th...e worst fight her and daddy ever had. You see I was supposed to pull up my grades and I was supposed to do more chores Etc before they would consider getting me a horse. I talked to my daddy into going to look at him...and I loped this horse around an arena and daddy wrote a check for $250 and we brought the horse to a place I had already picked out next to Mason High School. A horse can save a young woman's life. I tell people Crackers saved my life and I'm going to explain why. I was not popular. I didn't have fashionable clothes. I didn't participate in school activities. And I was treated very cruel by kids at school. I was not cool. Matter of fact I was the farthest thing from being cool. This horse made me cool as all kinds of s*** you can imagine. I would go to the barn and trot him across the school yard in through the neighborhood and all kinds of kids wanted to be my friend then. It was like having a Corvette when everybody drove a pinto.. of course I blew them off and I just went riding. I had wings. I also had something to love and care for that mattered. When many of my peers were going to Joe Creek to smoke weed and drink beer and party I had to go to the barn. It was such a great excuse to not participate. I got my first job at 14 at a restaurant making teas and salads for the waitresses. My first paycheck was $38 and I was so proud. My father looked at me and said "great now you can pay for your own feed and your pasture rent." Well..fuck.. there went the idea of going to the mall and buying clothes and makeup with my girlfriends. But good for me!!! In a million ways.. I was wild and I was free. I don't care about the way you look or your eyelashes. I don't care about the clothes you have or the car you drive. How do you treat the animals you have? I like you if you like to get out in the woods and fish and notice all the different colors of green in the leaves of a tree. I like you if you take good care of whatever you are in charge of. We slipped off a cliff one day and that horse scrambled on his belly to get me over the edge and he saved my life. He saved me in more ways than one. Blessed are the cowgirls... If your daughter wants a horse. Get her the damn horse. See more

Willow Grove Students- We will continue with our regular schedule this week. Lesson plans will be adjusted to focus on horse care and groundwork until it is safe to work the horses again. If any students are not able to attend due to health concerns with the poor air quality please cancel in advance and we can plan to make up the lessons whenever it clears up.
