MEET DANIELLE WINN- CONTENT CREATOR FOR THE PAINTED DESERT RANCH

[@CoyoteWindRanch]

I would have never even entertained the thought that you had not been riding from childhood. You look like a seasoned pro! Awesome hearing your bio!

[@cherylmillard2067]

I thought so too and was completely floored to learn this!

[@charlottestartt3689]

i agree

[@horse-lover68]

Yes unbelievable!!! When you see her barrel racing or training-Wow what a good and balanced seat!!

[@pamelamoreno4657]

You my dear are a delight! You certainly bloomed. I love that you and Henson always have a big smile. I actually enjoy all the riding and enjoy your beautiful horses. You are a delight. Thank you for every video.

[@stevenrafters7817]

I absolutely admire and respect your culture never let it die

[@williamchandler2558]

Danielle, look at you now ! You are a beautiful, smart ,fun ,great content provider.I love your videos.Watching the young horses responded to training is fascinating to me.

[@lastonestanding3417]

Thanks for being a real person (and your entire family), rather than the put-on-for-reality-tv type people. Appreciate what and how you share with the rest of us.

[@NotKev2017]

I started watching your channel over a year ago and I have really enjoyed it. It's even better knowing the person behind the camera or getting to know you. Continued success in the future, Danielle!

[@susanstone3588]

I admire all the cowgirl skills you've acquired in such a short time, the biggest compliment I can give you is that you're a "good hand". I've been cruisin' through all the old videos and have enjoyed "riding along". '

[@PaintedDesertRanch]

🙌🏼 thank you Susan!! Glad to have you along!

[@marionlesage4794]

Lovely to meet such a lovely cowgal! You mentioned your motto “To bloom where you’re planted “ to me in a comment response not that long ago: I shared it with my son who is in a very difficult situation. It has become our motto. If we can’t shine where we have been placed in life, how can we shine anywhere? Your videos are fun to watch, but also inspiring. Thank you for taking the time and effort to share them with us. Also a side note: my son got to experience Navajo hospitality on a camping trip a few years back in the Painted Dessert. They taught my sons group a song about enjoying and living life as they took them on a trail ride. My son came home singing that song, and will never forget that amazing experience. You are blessed to be part of such a noble gracious people.

[@PaintedDesertRanch]

Love your comments, thank you

[@ellenwheat3608]

Wow, nice comment!

[@latanyabompiani6429]

It’s a pleasure to meet you, lady!! 👋 My family (the Nez family) used to go to church with the Winns and the Garners. We, my 4 siblings and I, all grew up and moved to Tucson to continue our schooling and attempt to pursue our careers. I always wondered what the Winn family were up to, nowadays. Most days, I do miss the ranch life. ~Tanya

[@PaintedDesertRanch]

Awesome! I’ll ask then if they remember you!

[@latanyabompiani6429]

@@PaintedDesertRanch , lol, definitely. So asking for a friend, would you charge and have visitors sign a waiver, if they wanted to help/experience ranch life for a day/weekend, round up cattle/horses? I also graduated with Amber from VHS. 😉

[@georgesherman5345]

You sure look and act the part of a "PRO". Just as a side... you are a VERY PRETTY LADY!!!! With you being Navajo and all, I thought you had been "into this" forever. Okay I've put in my 2 cents worth. Keep up the excellent work. Thanks!! BTW, I've lived in Phoenix for about 60 years. I'm from Vermont. I love this state and have been all over it for years. I was in the XRAY machine business, installing and repairing. I've even installed machines on "THE RES". I love listening to you, keep up the great work!!

[@Trapezius8oblique]

Wow ….you do not look forty, you look in your twenties. Amazing. I understand where you are coming from, a similar situation happened to me where I had to accept my fate, “bloom where I was planted” love that saying. Yes, been working cattle with horses for 12 years now and absolutelyI love it! Once I accepted it it was all natural for me. If I had to do it all again I would. I was really lost before I came here and didn’t know it. You do an amazing job learning all you have. Great team work. Enjoy your videos from the bulls to the horses ect. 🌹👏🏼 from Australia

[@trulylynn9941]

I love you story. I had horses when I was younger and have always loved them. You bring a lot of joy to my heart. Thank you my dear👍🏼💖💋

Love the channel. Great job on the introduction Danielle. Enjoyed hearing your background and how you and Henson came to be where you are today. And glad Jerry is still getting around and being hands on involved. Love ,love hearing him talk about the lineage of the horses

[@kjam360]

Yep, that's what brought me here, the Horse's! I love'em, been around them when I was a young boy. Worked on a Ranch when I got older! Love working with and riding Horses. It's not work when you love what you're doing! It's like, I can't believe I'm getting paid to do this.

Thank you 🙏🏼

[@lisawheeler6488]

I'm amazed when you hook those big a$$ trailers. I call for help to tow my little 8X10. I love the horses. Funny story: I was horse crazy growing up, All I wanted was my own horse. Well, my dad went to an auction one night and came home with a blood bay gelding. 16 hand. Thinking it was a saddle horse, I jumped on bareback. SURPRISE it was a retired race horse. I nearly flew backwards when he kicked it into high gear. Hee haw we were off.. My dad was a little surprised himself when he learned what he a purchased. I'm 70 now and can still feel my horses under me. I enjoy watching you studs when you turn them out. And all those pretty babies when you bring them in. I always find a dozen that I like. Keep up your good work with your content. You make interesting stories and you have a real talent in your story telling.

[@rhondaserges5136]

My father was Ojibwe and my mom was white. Thankfully my adopted parents could afford and allowed horses. Love seeing the horses .. those mares are phenomenal.. I've been peaking at papers. Your mares really complete your stallions on paper.

[@user-cj9ed2dg8k]

You are an amazing lady! Thank you for the look into what makes you tick! I loved barrel racing and pole bending ...keep being you! ❤

[@rosedavis2650]

Right on daniell...quite a women u r n love your to watch n I do enjoy..thanks for the kind of person u r....

Fun to see you Danielle you have had a Crash Course in Horsemanship!! You are a natural and the Love Of The Horse is Very Special aspects when you work meany Hours it's not All Fun!!! Keep Up The Hard Work and the Love of Ranching!!!💞

[@portiahuntley7612]

My favorite video. Love it. You are so knowledgeable and so beautiful inside and out. When Henson looks at you there is so much love in his eyes. You can also see the appreciation in Jerry's eyes and the way he talks to you. Girl many of us would love your life. At 71 I am sadly past that. You rock.

[@PaintedDesertRanch]

Aww shucks- thank you. 🥰

[@bigrigger5617]

Great intro. Never would have believed you did not start riding from a child. Love your channel. Hinson is hoot just like Jerry

[@phillipstephens3079]

The work is ever present, relentless and challenging, frustrating and at times so exhausting BUT the rewards deep in one’s soul. You can call it a “piece of mind”, maybe even a “connection of your self to natures wonder”. Those sights of early morning sunrises, the smells of EARTH, WIND AND RAIN, your own rise to the challenge of the day, how you have to often improvise your way into solutions and the self reward of “I figured that out” and we made it work. Those upside down days that you also experience build on your appreciation of those good days. Your priorities become so straightforward, so focused and much more simplistic…it’s just a different lifestyle. Your daily routine is definitely “off the grid”, your remote and isolated, alone but independent…self-sufficient and not always productive to where your happy about the ending you worked toward. I call back on my memories of my younger years on a ranch in the Snake River Country of the Northwest and smile at it all….the good, the bad and the ugly. The videos of your families daily lives are greatly appreciated and reach far beyond the obvious…thank you.

I don't know what it is about horses. I'm not a horse person. One day I just came across horses and horsemanship videos. I thought they were interesting and started watching more and more to this day. I still don't own a horse, but I have learned quite a bit watching horsemanship videos.

[@angiegranberry3366]

Thanks Danielle for sharing your story with us. I grew up riding from age 7, and I miss it every day. So that's why I enjoy watching your content! Ride on and I will ride with you into that gorgeous sunset at Painted Desert 🏜

Thanks for watching! We’re glad you enjoy ☺️

[@helenstewart2085]

As a New Zealand Farmer love to hear your history. We finished lambs on a mixture of irrigation land on the plains, which is several types of clovers, ryegrass, plantain, plus lucerne, and foliage crops rape and kale. Plus very old pasture in the higher rainfall foothills of Canterbury, South Island New Zealand , our blocks are 18kms apart. Farming 176ha so tiny, but very intensive, we fatten several thousand lambs, but always around the same number of livestock, as lambs are finished each week, more arrive. We finish many different breeds, some take several weeks and some take several months. Our winters are very wet and hard frosts in the foothills plus sometimes snow but only stays on the ground for a few days and on the plains cold and half the rainfall. Summers can be very dry on the plains block, and very rarely can we not make hay on the foothills block, last year was that year. Summer is November to February and we are making hay and balage at the moment, we had a very dry summer last season and a very wet one this season.

[@maryleonard6381]

Thanks for sharing, very interesting!

[@PaintedDesertRanch]

Cool!

[@johnmccaughan4195]

That was nice and well done. We are glad you got planted in the desert and bloomed into a magnificent flower. I was surprised that you were a town girl, I cain't imagine how tough the move was. I only knew a few barrel racers, they were obsessed with the sport to the detriment of every thing else. Tell Miss Nancy, we all know who the real boss is and would love at least one meeting with her.

I’m very glad that you and Hinson ended up on the ranch and that you started putting out the videos for selfish reasons. I enjoy watching the lifestyle and it surprises me that you came into horses as an adult because you seem like a natural which shows how much work you have invested in learning. The 4 of you are a great team with the ranch operation. Keep up the good work so I can see through your eyes the things that you do with the horses and such.
