For us, August means the end of our summer guest ranch season, school starts and the county fair. We really enjoy fair week. There is a parade, horse show, livestock show, exhibits, rides (kids favorites) and the rodeo. Last year the Newton County Fair brought in a Little Britches Rodeo. If you think rodeos [...]
Horseback riding is probably the first thing that comes to your mind when you think, “dude ranch”. Saddling up and heading down the trail, listening to the horses feet hit the ground, can be very therapeutic. It’s good for the soul. Typical Monday Morning Trail Rides – “Get to know your horse.”
“Working goats” is when you have to handle them for any reason. We needed to “work goats” because it was time to check to see if they needed worming, a few needed some extra attention due to some feet problems (they will be sold) and last but not least the young bucklings (little billies) needed [...]
When we started out in the dude ranch business we were very traditional in our activities. We had horseback riding, cookouts, hikes, fishing, tomahawk throwing and canoeing.

Last spring if you all remember we awaited a foal to be born. Several late nights thinking that it was the night and then finally when I had almost given up Thistle was born. She is now a year old and has gotten so big. She is a funny girl, not much bothers her at [...]
The Jasper school has an annual talent show every year where the proceeds from it go towards the 12th grade’s prom for the following year. The unique twist to the fundraiser is that the class below the up and coming 12th grade is in charge of the entire show and raising of the money. [...]
