After months of fighting the good fight (by everyone involved), today Barbaro was euthanized.  He was a good 'un.  We who love horses weep for the loss of him, but he finally runs freely once again.

If the Super Bowl isn't your thing, there's an alternative for the first weekend in February.  On the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th, the Way Out Wineries of Texas are having a Mardi Gras Road Trip touring the 8 member wineries in Central Texas towns for tasting and food and wine pairings involving Louisiana ...

Many things in the past have come together to make Austin the city it is today.  In a series of blogs, I'm going to revisit them. Bedichek.  Dobie.  Webb.  Three friends whose names ring in Austin history.  A naturalist, a writer and folklorist, an historian.  They are remembered by Austin in a s...

We're all, this time of year, thinking about ways to burn more calories and lose weight.  Well, Equisearch is no different; they came up with a chart for how many calories are burned doing various things with our horses, from riding to currying to stacking hay.  If you're going to burn more calor...

 This is a quick and easy way to have dinner on the table in half an hour with precious little work.  I make up the coating in bulk and keep it in a jar so I can just pull it out when needed.

In the Austin American-Statesman, there's an article on "Managed Tolls" as a possible alternative to full-fledged toll roads proposed for Mopac and other major routes in Austin, Texas.  What the article describes sounds similar to the HOV lanes in Houston and other cities.  An advantage would be ...

I blogged back in December about how all the elves in our office (that would be us agents) were climbing all over things decorating in an attempt to give back to the community, and were going to have an open house complete with Santa Claus.  Well, we did, it went wonderfully, and I thought I'd sh...

If I know that we're going to be particularly busy on a weekend (and ALWAYS on weekends when we're putting up hay!), I'll make a double or triple batch of these.  They're good hot or cold, and they're easy to grab for a snack to keep you going.  No, they're not the healthiest thing on the planet,...

Well, it happened.  We knew it would, but we were hoping it wouldn't.  Went out to put up the chickens yesterday (ours are free-range), and J.D., our Heeler, had caught one, killed it, and eaten a bit.  So I had to tie the chicken to his collar and correct him firmly.  He was not happy about that...
