I’ve been trying to find the right words the last few days on how to announce a HUGE change (for me anyways😅) but since all of my clients now know, I figured I would share the news. I think, collectively, we can all agree this year was an interesting one. From having what felt like a late start with rain, to having so many rebooking’s because of the smoke, then having to evacuate the horses for a couple weeks because of a fire, it’s been crazy. I want to give a huge shout out to my clients, this year has been difficult but you all have been so patient and supportive. It really helps when things are scrambled and I appreciate every single one of you💕
Our lessons and training for the year is coming to an end on September 11th. Every winter since moving up here I’ve pushed through and stayed however this winter is different. I’m packing my bags and heading back to the Okanagan. With the goal to finish my schooling, get my diploma in Equine Studies and my certificate in Equine Science. Sully leaves with me to go out on lease close by while I accomplish this, Sako, Memphis, Dutch and Willow are staying behind at the ranch for the winter. Electra will be heading to a new home shortly.
Obviously this wasn’t something I planned lightly. But I know for certain it is needed. It did admittedly get delayed a year as I wanted to do this last fall too, but the timing wasn’t right. Things this year have fallen so perfectly in place that it’s hard to even think about staying. We will however, be back next year. I will return with even more knowledge, and the ability to continue doing what I love doing best, coach and ride some cool horses😎
I hope to bring in the same smiling faces next year, as well as some new ones. I already have some ideas up my sleeve😜 but for now, we learn even more, and we come back better than ever for 2027. The page will be pretty quiet in the coming months, but my messages are always open!
