    By Carole Herder Picture this: a glorious summer afternoon. The smell of freshly cut grass is hanging in the air. A slight breeze is blowing to keep the hazy day cool.

  • Blaze Your Own Trail

    By Carole Herder When I first got involved with horses I didn’t know much. I took on the perspectives of those around me without question. It didn’t take too long before I knew that ‘the way’ was not my way and didn’t align with my core beliefs. Have you been in a situation where you’re…
