What equine adventures do you see on the horizon of 2012?

by Leadmare | Another year is winding down — can you believe it? Did you know 2011 marked the 10-year anniversary of Girls Horse Club? Wow, in Internet years that’s a VERY long time! How long have you been hanging out at GHC?

by LeadMare | Hola GHCers! I hope you’re having a fantastic Fall. Mine has been jam-packed with amazing experiences, primarily centered around my Blue Sky adventure in Guatemala. It was a whirlwind…

by LeadMare | It’s when I’m outside my daily routine, surrounded by nature under the vast blue sky, that blue sky thoughts fill my head and heart.

Or is it a result of cause and effect (causality)?

by LeadMare | I enjoy my coffee in the morning, but the fact is I don’t need artificial stimulation to get moving — I’m naturally caffeinated. If you’re a person with a lot of energy, you know that if you don’t release that energy in a healthy way, it’s no fun for you and the people around you…

General submissions are open, and we hope to give our readers some great content to feed their love for horses! To help encourage more variety and originality, let’s talk about non-fiction.
