On the Trail With Stephanie

Building a Bridge

By Stephanie Rivers · On May 11, 2015February 4, 2018 · in On the Trail With Stephanie

I have been riding since I was small. I don't know the first time I rode, but there are pictures of me on a pony as a toddler. My parents weren't competitive or professional riders in any sense of the word, but they kept a horse or two for pleasure riding.

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun

By Stephanie Rivers · On February 4, 2016April 28, 2016 · in On the Trail With Stephanie

Do you recall when you were a kid and you did things just because you wanted to?  It didn’t matter if it was horse related or not, there just wasn’t any real thought to the reason behind doing something.

I’m Handling a Fear on Horseback

By Stephanie Rivers · On December 15, 2015June 7, 2016 · in On the Trail With Stephanie

Thanks to the holidays, in this case Thanksgiving, I’ve actually had the opportunity to ride frequently.  My husband took off the whole week of Thanksgiving and was willing to help with the kids so I could ride the fantastic Ruby!

The View Between The Ears

By Stephanie Rivers · On March 14, 2016May 2, 2016 · in On the Trail With Stephanie

Of all of the places I’ve been fortunate enough to ride in my life, I wonder if I have a favorite.  From beautiful beaches to steep rocky mountains, which terrain is the most fun?  Picking my way through green trees to loping across a sage brush covered field, which gives the best experience?  If I had […]

Ranch Encounters

By Stephanie Rivers · On February 29, 2016October 6, 2016 · in On the Trail With Stephanie

Thanks to the help of my husband and brother, we almost always get to ride on Wednesday evenings at the ranch.  It’s amazing to me to look back on the pictures and see how far we have come in a year.  In just a few short weeks our new home will be finished and we can live here. […]

Stonewall Sport Horses

By Stephanie Rivers · On February 18, 2016June 7, 2016 · in On the Trail With Stephanie

You know how the horse world is a small world?  It so is.  Like when I moved, with my Apps, from Cali to Florida and boarded at a small boarding barn and 2 months later a gal moved from Cali to Florida with her App and boarded at same barn and we knew of so many things […]

Senior Mares

By Stephanie Rivers · On March 4, 2016October 6, 2016 · in On the Trail With Stephanie

Horse people tend to fall into 2 categories.  Gelding people and mare people.  I’ve never really understood it, as I don’t see what’s wrong with mares.  I hear about attitudes and moods, but don’t geldings have those too?  I suppose that I must fall into the mare category if I have to choose.

Living Conditions

By Stephanie Rivers · On March 30, 2016May 2, 2016 · in On the Trail With Stephanie

Most of my adult life I have lived on the same property as my horses. There are multiple reasons why someone would want to do so, but it was just my natural choice.  In the past 3 years, I have not.  After marrying we both kept our properties and would stay at both places throughout the week.  After babies […]

    There are no lack of veggies in this dogs diet. Odie eats more greens than my hubby & son combined.
  • Ok the news February 14, 2019
    Good luck with your transition - take care of yourself, the kids and Spring. I hope for all the best for you all!
  • Xmas update February 11, 2019
    I can imagine! Sparks is very mellow in his leisure time, he'll occasionally canter round a few strides when you turn him out but normally grass is his main concern lol.
  • Texas People #6 February 11, 2019
    well it was cold don’t cha know! I do think he has sight in that eye. When he lets me look, the scar is on the lower right and it he definitely reacts to movement on that side.
