Fun with barrels one Sunday. That’s Leticia on Bossa Nova.

Great to be out in the sunshine and warm weather!

Brisa Libertas, dam of Koyote, Brasilia and Izzy, is back with us again. What a great mare.

Scottsdale Arabian Horse Show – a great way to spend the day or week in Feb.

Always a few trail rides each week. New trails all the time.

Some photos from around our ranch and sometimes a bonus “do Summerwind” horses.

The trail ride videos! A bonus this month from Laurie Klassen, Future Foal @ Casa RIo.
