“A Morning Hike”

(A very nice blog post by Steven Reed, a fantastic photographer)

Silence is a loud sound I notice as I tread quietly on the soft mossy trail, that my headlamp lights up in front of me. Much different than the trails I’m use to in the Rocky Mo…

Ivy Conrado currently sits in second place in the Women’s Professional Barrel Racing standings as of today (April 28, 2016).

The following image is Ivy riding Tibbie during the championship round of rodeo at the 2016 National Western Stock Show in Denver, CO (January 24, 2016).  They are turning the second barrel on their way to nailing down 2nd place in the overall standings at the prestigious rodeo.

Colorado barrel racer Ivy Conrado got the home state crowd cheering during her run in the championship round of rodeo at the 2016 National Western Stock Show in Denver, CO (jan 24, 2016).

I was fortunate enough to be able to recently interview Ivy, and will be sending the Q&A to The Wrangler magazine (out of Wyoming).  I will give everyone a heads up when it is published.  (The Wrangler’s Facebook Page)

Thanks for taking the time to talk with me, Ivy!

One of our horses is a goofball.

Yep, that’s him in action!  Whether he is entertaining us, chewing the barn apart, bending the rails of his horse pen, leaning all over our fences, or anything else, it is always something.

A few days ago, he came hobbling into the barn after being out in the pasture and it was clear there was something majorly wrong with his left hind leg.  After inspection, I noticed an object protruding from the bottom of his hoof.  A pair of pliers and a few interesting attempts later, this thing came out…

Yeah, that’s the tip of a deer antler that managed to pierce the sole of his hoof and embed itself 1.5 inches deep, straight into the sole.  Poor guy.  Freak occurrence, of course.  One you would never see coming.

But that’s life.  There are always “things you never see coming.”  What is most important is how you deal with those things.

Along those lines, there have been some things going on in my writing and photography world that took me by surprise.  As I watch our horse heal up and take it all in stride (pun intended, I suppose), I’m going to learn a lesson from him and do the same.  (Proverbs 3:5-6 has some thoughts along those lines)

Always double check your cinch and have a great day!

Continuing This Ride

Thanks for taking time to stop by my blog, which I am reviving and creatively going to rebrand as “Lincoln’s Thinkin’s.”  And to think I didn’t even have to pay a Madison Avenue P.R. firm to come up with that catchy title.

Boggles the mind, doesn’t it?

Life sometimes has a way of getting away from a person, but I’m planning on revving this blog back up and continuing to fill it with thoughts, interviews, stories and photography related to western, rural, cowboy/cowgirl and equestrian related places, events, people and even other topics that pique my curiosity.

I’ll be posting more soon!

I look forward to continuing this ride with you.
