Greetings… I’m Sarah Dickinson, a restless soul eager for adventure, and have been told I am barely domesticated. Of course I have. I know there are more of you out there, and you know who you are. I yearn for adventure, but not just any adventure. You see, I’m hopelessly addicted to horses. Not just any horses, though. I’m addicted to building a true partnership with my own horse built on trust, fairness, acceptance, excellent horsemanship, and love.

Our first big trip, and such a success! We had a poker ride, rode through spectacular trails, ate at the Bonnie Springs restaurant, and enjoyed our friends and family.
