Welcome to Noble Ridge Farm!

This is my attempt to create a literate blog about life on a small horse farm in upstate New York. You'll hear about the trials and tribulations and joys of taking on such a venture in midlife, along with possibly a little editorializing about anything that happens to get my dander up. Right now we are in a deep freeze, with temperatures going as long as -26F at night. But it does go up to about 10 degrees during the day, thankfully. Horsekeeping in this weather is not for sissies. In fact, I'm off right now to bring the beasties in for the night, to give them a chance to warm up on a bed of fresh shavings and chow down on some sweet second-cut hay.
