Today Jackson got to go back to his early years mustering cattle. Although nothing as exciting as mustering on a cattle station with helicopters, he did show his understanding of working cows and keeping them moving where they were supposed to go.
Miss B has worked so hard in and out of the saddle to educate Wilson and turn him into a horse that is safe to cater around on bareback. I just love this little boy, he has the sweetest kindest nature, the biggest heart and even when he is really …

It’s always such a relief to have our first rains of the season and start to see the pasture germinating and turning the paddocks green after months of dusty, dry brown. This year it is going green early compared to past years thanks to early rains. Let us hope it …
