About me

Gender Female
Occupation R.N.- baby nurse
Location Gainesville, Florida, United States
Introduction I am a single mom with one horse, an AngloArab named Jackson. I bought Jackson in Jan of 2007 and have never been an adult horse owner. I had a pony and two OTTB's as a kid, but since we couldn't afford saddles, I just rode! I woked in a jumping barn as a teenager, and have been around horses a bit, but since living on our farm the horses I have ridden have honestly been the schooling, push button kind! Jackson IS NOT! So every ride and time spent with him is a new, delightful,learning experience!!! I also have a terrier named Sprout, a Lab mix named Harlow, a Siamese cat named Cammie,and Piper P. McPiperson the fat tabby. The kiddo is 15. I recently moved to Florida, and am looking forward to lots of jumping, hunter paces,endurance,trail riding,and I also plan on participating in as many ACTHA trail challenges as I can! I am focusing on becoming the rider that my horse wants me to be! By having this blog I hope to meet fellow horse peeps who share in my love of the horse!
