📰 THE HITCHING POST | VOLUME ONE • ISSUE 7

This Labor Day Weekend, we’re thinking about the work behind the life we love. 🐴

The early mornings. The feeding. The checking. The teaching. The fixing. The caring. And all those little things that get done every day simply because they need doing.

This week’s Hitching Post is for the people who put their hands to work, take pride in doing it well, and understand that some of the most meaningful work doesn’t always look like “work” from the outside.

And because it’s still Sly Fox… yes, the chickens have opinions. 😂🐔

Grab your coffee and enjoy Volume One, Issue 7. ☕📰

Happy Labor Day Weekend from all of us at Sly Fox Stables. ❤️

THREE-DAY WEEKEND. WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH IT?

🐴 More saddle time?
🌾 More time at the barn?
🎈 Celebrating something with your favorite people?
📸 Finally getting those photos you've been talking about?

Around here, we're partial to plans that involve fresh air, open pasture and a little dirt on your boots.

Boarding. Riding lessons. Parties. Photography.

There are plenty of reasons to spend a little more time in the country.

Enjoy the long weekend, y'all. 🇺🇸

LABOR DAY WEEKEND: FARM EDITION

Some folks are kicking off three days of doing absolutely nothing.

At Sly Fox…

🐴 Horses still expect breakfast.
🐔 Chickens recognize no federal holidays.
🐮 Highland babies remain committed to being adorable.
🐱 Kittens have taken the long weekend without submitting PTO.
🦚 And the VP of Looking Important? ... Has apparently been celebrating Labor Day all year. 😂

The farm doesn't exactly come with an OFF switch — but we wouldn't have it any other way.

Happy Labor Day Weekend from Sly Fox Stables! 🇺🇸🐴

🦚 OFFICE OF THE VP OF LOOKING IMPORTANT

FRIDAY PERFORMANCE REPORT

Another successful week at Sly Fox Stables.

Horses cared for. 🐴
Lessons taught.
Pastures inspected.
Chickens supervised. 🐔
Highland babies monitored.
Kittens located.*

And after five demanding days of standing around looking absolutely magnificent, the VP is pleased to announce:

THE WEEKEND MAY NOW BEGIN.

You're welcome.

Management would like to clarify that the VP accomplished almost none of the items listed above.

The VP would like to clarify that leadership is about delegation.

🦚✨

Kitten location subject to change without notice.

YOUR LUNCH BREAK COULD USE A BETTER VIEW. 🌿🐴

Somewhere right now, you're probably staring at a screen.

Meanwhile at Sly Fox...

The horses are grazing.
The breeze is moving through the pasture.
There's probably a kitten asleep somewhere it shouldn't be.
And nobody has asked you to join a Zoom meeting.

Just thought you should know. 😂

Sometimes a little country air is exactly what the middle of the day needs.

Happy lunchtime from Sly Fox Stables. 🌾

🥩🍎 SLY FOX SUPPER CLUB

FALL ISN’T HERE YET.
DINNER DOESN’T CARE.

Tonight we're pulling out the Dutch oven for Apple Cider Braised Brisket.

Brisket.
Apple cider.
Onions.
Garlic.
Rosemary.
Apples.

Then give it a few hours to mind its own business while your house starts smelling like you suddenly know exactly what you're doing. 😂

This is the kind of meal that makes everybody wander into the kitchen asking:

“When are we eating?”

And that cider gravy at the end?

Yeah. Make the mashed potatoes.

🥩 Tonight's recipe comes from Simple Bites.

🐴 YOUR BARN SHOULD BE A PLACE YOU WANT TO STAY AWHILE.

A place where your horse is well cared for.
A place where you can keep learning.

A place where you can saddle up, work on something new, or simply enjoy being around horses.
At Sly Fox Stables, we offer both horse boarding and riding lessons in a relaxed country setting right here in Clayton.

🏡 BOARDING includes house grain, coastal hay, quarterly deworming, daily turnout, a lighted riding arena and round pen — with attentive care from people who genuinely love horses.

🐴 RIDING LESSONS are available for beginners through advanced riders, including Western riding and barrel racing.

Whether you're looking for a new home for your horse or you're ready to spend more time in the saddle, there's a place for you at Sly Fox. ❤️

🐔 COOP TALK

We made the mistake of giving the Chicken Committee access to the morning agenda.

They've now expanded their jurisdiction to include kittens, Highland hair, horses, and executive performance reviews.

Nobody authorized this.

Nobody knows who gave them the chalkboard.

And we're fairly certain the VP plans to appeal the decision. 🦚

Anyway… good morning from Sly Fox Stables, where apparently everyone has a title and absolutely no one stays in their department. 😂

GOOD BOARDING SHOULD GIVE YOU PEACE OF MIND.
You should be able to leave the barn knowing your horse is fed, turned out, comfortable and being watched over by people who notice the little things.

At Sly Fox Stables, that's what we're here for.
Boarding includes house grain, coastal hay, quarterly deworming and daily turnout in a relaxed country setting, with a lighted riding arena and round pen available when it's time to work or ride.
And behind all those amenities is something even more important:

People who genuinely love horses and care about yours. ❤️🐴

Good morning from Sly Fox Stables! ☀️🐴

September apparently missed the memo that fall is coming because we're headed for 98° today. 🥵

So while everybody handles their morning business around the farm, we're keeping an eye on the heat, keeping everybody comfortable, and appreciating whatever shade we can find.

Meanwhile, we're halfway to the weekend — and that's worth celebrating. 🙌

Stay cool out there, y'all!
