Ellen and Maxx rode the Prix St. George this weekend. Both looked better than in any other test ridden to date. Maxx's extended trot surprised the photographer who has been photographing the rides for some time. She started clicking at the old speed ... more

So Many Questions by Megan A Cyrulewski 1/15/2014 12:32:06 PM
I have a million questions everyday as to why my daughter Madelyne does what she does. I am the youngest in my family (well, until Madelyne) so I didn't grow up around children. I actually didn't even hold a baby for the first time until I was 22. ... more

Getting Ready by DeAnn Melton 1/12/2014 2:13:38 PM
Ellen clipped the bottom part of Maxx's legs and shampooed and conditioned his tail and mane. Pat clipped the upper portion of his tail. He looks beautiful. Of course, he will need another bath before the competition ride on Saturday and Sunday (Janu... more

Politics at its worst in New Jersey by David Ravenwood 1/11/2014 1:06:18 PM
Chris Christie's aide must be vicious. I can't imagine making innocent people suffer by causing a traffic jam just to get even politically. If Christie had nothing to do with it, then he must be really embarrassed. How low will some individiuals in p... more

Mitt Romney shows real class by David Ravenwood 1/5/2014 10:45:04 AM
Mitt Romney impressed me for the first time today. I voted against him in 2012. The things he said and did during the campaign told me he was a right wing conservative who only cared about rich people and big business. The little guy could fend for h... more

Strong by DeAnn Melton 1/2/2014 12:06:52 PM
Maxx and Ellen moved well together today! They are working on a number of moves for Prix St. George, but timing of the cues or aids is essential. One crossing across the diagonal to do flying changes was off...Ellen said he wouldn't listen. The next ... more

Education on the Cheap by David Ravenwood 12/29/2013 1:42:33 PM
If we could get some of our Texas legislators to teach school for one year, they might think differently about school funding. In 2011 they cut $5.4 billion from the budget. Since then they have restored it by $3.4 billion and want educators to be sa... more

Canter Pirouettes, Etc. by DeAnn Melton 12/22/2013 1:36:30 PM
It is much more fun when Maxx's health isn't a mess!! He can now do canter pirouettes both to the right and to the left. Ellen worked on flying changes across the diagonal this morning. She said that he wants to change leads - on his own - too early.... more

Another young innocent person killed by David Ravenwood 12/21/2013 4:56:10 PM
Claire Davis was only 17, and gunned down while at her Colorado High School. I don't understand the people who don't want any more gun control, no matter how many innocent people are killed. I really thought we had a good chance of passing gun legisl... more

So the Judge is going to Retire by David Ravenwood 12/14/2013 2:11:42 PM
I'm really glad the judge who gave that 16-year-old drunk driver probation for killing four people is retiring. The husband of the mother and child who were killed is suffering so much: the senseless loss of these family members, and then their kille... more

History isn't Important? by David Ravenwood 12/7/2013 1:07:20 PM
A parent of one of my students shocked me during a parent/teacher conference when she said to her daughter, "You have to try hard in Social Studies, even though it isn't important."
I said nothing, knowing any comment would create conflict. ... more

Cold = Energy by DeAnn Melton 12/7/2013 1:06:17 PM
Does the cold equal energy in Maxx?? Seems so. Ellen said that he was more forward yesterday, but spooking every few steps at the end of the lesson (He was high!). It isn't fun when Maxx spooks because he jumps to the side. It feels like you are flyi... more
