Cisco Futurity – First Trail Ride
I still remember the difficult stuff when first starting a horse on the trails. Lucky Star discovered that he hated muddy gullies , so he tried to walk on the sides of the steep gully, or climb the gulley and get stuck in the trees on the top. Then I remember the stopping at the water crossing and the eventual jumping of the water crossing. I remember Lucky casting back and forth on the trail trying to find the right grove. I remember running down the steep rocky hills, screeching…
Sam’s Fairy Houses
Samantha (Sam) Cowick, age 7, told her mother, Summer, that she wanted to help children who needed help. After some research, she told Samantha about some places where children could use some help.

They buy material that Sam…
Most Amazing Dinner Date
"I'll take you to dinner tonight at Sam's," I said. "OK, Let's go. Let me get my heavier coat on," spouse responded. That's how we start out a romantic date night.

It's a word not usually associated with the person you know as me. My senior fitness class at Anytime Fitness in Pleasant Hill is having a pot luck Christmas Lunch today. I had signed up to bring a food. I struggled out of bed and into razor sharp consciousness. Undertaking a cooking experience is fraught with danger for…
No Greater Honor-Mention from Dr Patrick Handley
Dr. Patrick Handley's Facebook Page about Humanality: "Insight of the week: I received a wonderful message from youthful, 70 year old Parelli student Marilee Donovan. She thanked me for the positive, strengths-based orientation of the Humanality report and commented about how she was just now, at this stage in her life, discovering her true self and unleashing many of the personality strengths she had suppressed over the years. Marilee is embracing the RBI strengths of her personality (as well she should) and embracing her softer, more introspective side. I really…
