LOL I still have not changed the page to Equine Thermal Images but would love for you to contact me if anyone is interested in riding the beach in Mexico. I am getting a place set up down there close to the border in a safe area. I will have a house in Rosarito with beach access and horse facility.

Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.

Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.

Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.

Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism.

Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment, it is as perennial as the grass.

Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.

Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.

And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be.

And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

Had a visit with the mare I sent to JJ Anderson for training. She will be green broke officially in 2 weeks. Her forever home will be a very carefully chosed one. This is a horse who is impressive, well built, capable, and officially sound. (we had a tiny worry for a minute but it proved false). She will need consistency. Dr. Miller says a horse retains its early learning forever. We don't know her 1st 5 years of life. But it is under the surface and she needs to be with her human regular. This isn't a horse to be left and ridden occasionally. She also has to go to someone who isn't the type to loose interest and sell her.(that would be the same person who would come see her now and then) Much effort went into gaining her trust. She will be great for many different riding styles. Pictures will follow. She has a beautiful body and a dorsal stripe on a bay horse. Nice.

I've always wanted to move my girls with a big scarf. This was first time for me and any of my horses. I am too dramatic and startle them (a bigger heavier s...

A wonderful and successful clinic happened today. I held it at Tammy's because I knew it would do best over there. I was right!! Anyone can add this activity and lifestyle to their goals without changing what they already do. But the lifestyle will change you. The clinic was Cowboy Dressage. This is not a dressage split off and the name was just something it was dubbed. There is a course and events but no matter what horse you ride or what your background is this will benifit you and your horse. If you have a horse who needs help the tasks are geared for you. If you have a horse who is good at something and wins, this can be his recreation. I love freestyle fun stuff and that was my initial attraction. Now I want to be able to complete tasks that will increase my ability to someday enter an event and know what it takes to score. I predict this group of people will never be known for products, slogans or huge perfomances to fill the bleachers. But its very special.

This page will be changing names soon to Equine Thermal Images. I got that domain and I really never have been keen on the Horse Whisper term. I will build that website and get things up to s***f shortly. When I do I will re-invite everyone or just ad a subtitle or something. One domain name not even as good a Equine Thermal Images is selling now for $10,000. LOL I paid $30 for two years for the .com OOOOH RAH ( or ATTABOY since I was a sailor not a Marine.

"When I first read Ray's book 'Think, Harmony with Horses' back in the late 70s; the book was considered radical by many in the Equine world.
When I met Ray and read this book I felt like I had waited all my life to hear what this man was saying.
Today this way of working with horses is widely accepted; you can talk about these methods and be considered informed.
You may never understand the strength of character, the determination, the belief in the horse that it took for Ray to persevere in the face of this ridicule and criticism.
This many years later everyone wants to get on the band wagon and I applaud that.
You think the clinicians today have it tough? They are received with open arms!
Ray Hunt proved himself every day with every horse and he did it for the right reasons.
He didn't do it to be famous or to make money.
He did it to become a better horseman and to give something valuable back to the horse." - Carolyn Hunt.
