Shetland Ponies in Cardigans: Only in Scotland

Some of you might have already seen a few of these photographs circling around the internet, but in case you didn't, we here at Black Mountain Ranch had to make sure that you did. Yep, you haven't read incorrectly, that was in fact Shetland Ponies in Cardigans. In an effort to drum up some attention for VisitScotland, Fivla and Vitamin took center stage. They didn't seem to mind the attention, either. Needless to say, you don't have to worry about us getting any fancy ...

Wranglin' Wednesdays - Good Tidings To Y'all!

  Hey everyone! Merry Christmas, even if it is a day late! I'm really busy with last minute moving details, but I wanted to write a blog post anyway to see how everyone was doing. What did y'all get for Christmas? I got a few odds and ends, but the big thing I wanted was my father's custom-made Buffalo Saddlery saddle, which he gave to me! Now I just need to fork out the money to get a new saddle pad (American flag style, baby!), and find someone who can make me a matching breast ...

Wranglin' Wednesdays - Bug Off

  Hello everyone! I hope y'all are havin' a nice week, and if not, well, I hope it gets better!

Thursday’s Treats for the Entire Family this Holiday Season

It’s already December 13th if you can believe it. 2012 is almost over, and Christmas is nearly here. How many of you have your shopping done already? Or have at least started? This year I did some planning in advance by making a list with what I’m getting each one of my family members and friends. (Normally I am the Queen of procrastination and last minute, and all my shopping is done a few days beforehand without knowing what I’m getting everyone… which gets a little hectic.) This year I’ll ...

Horse Loggers: Nature's Companion

  Simon Lenihan, a full time commercial horse logger, removes a Scots Pine tree from the Balmoral Estate with Salome Du Pre Renier, a 4 year old Belgian Ardennes horse, on Dec. 11 in Balmoral, Scotland. I'm the first to admit, I am a sucker when it comes to equine photography and these images were too beautiful and interesting for me to pass by. As a little girl growing up, I had a handful of truly remarkable experiences being surround by beautiful horses. My father was ...
