As you walk into the barn, you can feel the weight of the world melting off of you. Your horse nickers and you smile and quicken your pace. You know what's coming - the grooming and saddling ritual, the weight of your foot in the stirrup and the fact that you become weightless as your horse powers you forward.

This is what you live for - the hard work and the sweat, the communication with an animal ten times your size, and the absolute power that this generous animal lends you. This is your life, and this is our life, too.

Please, take some time to look around the site - we've designed it with you in mind. Our Resources section has articles and tips to help make your life with horses easier. Check out our Product Reviews section to get the inside scoop on how products really work before you spend your money on them. And be sure to visit our Small Business Barn to learn about the small equestrian businesses that you might not have heard of yet.

Thank you for visiting. Enjoy the ride!
