Things are getting back to normal around here.  With all the commotion of the recent Extreme Mustang Makeover in NJ behind us, we are all settling back into our routines at Next Level HorsemanshipTM.  There’s still enough going on to keep us all busy, of course, but the 14 hour days we put in gentling and polishing our training maneuvers on our mustangs pre-competition are over.  Zephyr and Denali are enjoying a slower pace of life now and are mostly just munching on hay and pasture, and going out for trail rides. They’ll get some well deserved R & R and slowly return to training to improve their skills even more. I look forward to teaching Zephyr so much in the days to come.
As the summer starts to come to a close and all the students return to school, I can’t help but wonder where all the time went! How is it already the end of August?  Wait, I already graduated?! I don’t have to go back to class with everybody else?  Turns out what they say is true-college does go by in the blink of an eye. But then again, all time does if we’re not careful enough to appreciate each moment.  In the spirit of appreciating all that we have, I want to make a proposition to everybody.  With the cooler days of fall quickly approaching, go out and ride your horses, spend time with your equine partners- and maybe coax your human partners to jump on a horse too.  Who knows, maybe they will discover a new-found passion in horsemanship.~Anna
