    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

New horse today.

Just picked up this paint from my parents' next door neighbor. She had just put her up for sale today. She had produced her and I have watched her raise her from a foal for the past 7 years. Absolutely beautiful animal.

About a year and a half ago the lady was riding her and the horse got spooked bad by a motorcycle. Bucked the lady off and she broke pretty much every bone on the right side of her body. Needless to say, she was a bit hesitant to get back on her and never did. Her and her husband already had other horses they ride so she was not getting used.

I took her out for a couple of hours tonight and she was perfect. Nothing spooked her. We even had 4 or 5 harleys and a bunch of vehicles go by a small intersection I had to take her through to get to our riding area. She didn't even so much as turn an ear towards them. With a few more rides under her belt to get used to me, she is going to be a perfect animal for many years to come.

She rides great. Real smooth animal. She did give me a great deal. If it had been up to her husband, he would have just given her to me. He really wanted her gone...lol
