IN MEMORY OF
Pete
Pete was the first horse in the farm. We spent an incredible 7 years together. We named one of our tack rooms in his memory.
Buster
Buster traveled from California with his friend Brutal. We were hoping to get to spend a little more time with him but we sadly lost him a couple months after he retired at the farm.
Memorials
Our History
"A tradition on the ranch is to name different spots associated with the land after notable livestock that lived, and died, at that spot. For example, there is a draw named by my Great-Great Grandfather after a mule named Kit that died there in the 1880's. Gray's Branch, was named by early pioneer Tobe Joy for the loss of his gray mare to a bear he was hunting. Red's Hole, on the Little Devil's River, memorializes the death of a prized hunting hound, Red, to another bear. We continue that tradition with Horse-Soldier Equine, by naming the newly constructed gate that leads to the stable after Buster who recently passed. While he wasn't with us long he is no less important in remembering his legacy as a warhorse. His memorial joins the tack room named for Old Pete"
