When I was a kid, I got scared of horses, lost my nerve and became terrified of them. But love for them made me want to ride... i would get nervous, stomach butterflies, anxious with fear and worry... Then even as a kid I figured out that I needed to RELABEL what I felt. So when I had butterflies, I would tell myself over and over that I was excited, when I was nervous or anxious, I would tell my self I was excited that I wanted to ride and couldnt wait... eventually I trained my brain and turned my fear into excitement.

I loved your video. I would not want to gather horses. They are not like cows but like you said they will go as fast as they can.

Hello Lisa how’s the weather over there

[@stargazer8339]

The video you made truly showed why you call it the Painted Desert Ranch. Colorful & rugged. The mares all looked fat & sassy, you take excellent care of all your animals. Ghost was a good boy. No buck, all business! 🐴

[@lastonestanding3417]

Thanks for sharing honest life. I've tried false bravado, that's a losing hand. Lincoln has got to one of the most in shape dogs ever. What a great guy, gotta be impressed with Lincoln.

[@stanleyipkiss8022]

You could totally use a drone to find the horses so your not looking

[@PaintedDesertRanch]

Well that’s no fun, plus the horses don’t get their training and exercise.

[@disabilitylight206]

It was so cool to get that sense of riding a horse from your camera angle.

[@Bodiy]

I’ve had a couple of horses like Ghost and I kept them till they died of old age people think you’re foolish for keeping them because they just cost you money but I have a heart and I didn’t want them abused and the same as you I didn’t want anyone to get hurt and when you sell them you have no say in what is done to them they just needed a peaceful life and the only way they would was to stay at my place no matter the cost I would just have to work some overtime😂

[@PaintedDesertRanch]

Yes! And you learn them… you know what they can and can’t take.

Thanks for letting me ride with you!!! I’m a farm gal (now 79) who can really enjoy these adventures from my easy chair…wishing I could have had a chance to grow up on your ranch!!! I drove tractor and stacked bales in the hayloft as I grew up. Helped round up the milk cows in the late afternoon until winter kept them in the barn. I’m enjoying your life and will continue watching you! Thanks, again!

The saddle horses shone like polished copper. To me this is an enviable life, simplistic & sturdy tradition working with the land & creatures adapted. The land so large & remote an area sincerely a test of endurance but rewarding in itself, such skies above & horizons beyond. Wide open spaces an immense place makes people & animals hardy & up to the task. Thanks for sharing, well done with easy going style..
