Guess the foal’s coloring is posting tomorrow. You’ll soon see a link. Two Winners! Why two winners? Because we have two mares due within a week of each other. You may guess Scarlett’s foaling date or Jewels’s foaling date. Or you may enter twice wit...

Just for fun on a rainy Sunday . . . Yesterday, Kristel and I nearly panicked. I heard Maverick screaming (I know his voice). He is our little month-old papered (expensive) buckling, destined to become the Nubian herd sire. I bottle feed him five tim...

The “What Am I” is blue snakeskin. I was pretty generous, and if any entry had the word “snake” in it (or even pit viper, which is a snake), I accepted it. The image shows one kind of blue snake, but there are plenty of others out there, believe it o...

I posted these over on the Goldtown Adventures site, but chances are nobody just hops over there. So, here are some fun concepts I came up with on a rainy, rainy day. I sent these ideas to my publisher at Kregel, and she loves them! So hopefully, as...
