I've done a bit of scheduling that sort of thing... it's really not that difficult if you have a nice facility-- a fair or rodeo grounds will do. I like the idea of having a couple of different and complementary clinicians come a few times per year.

With all the immigration problems in AZ there is no more English anything there anymore!

Until the borders have been secured, English has been cancelled!

And maybe get to ride more than 8 weeks in the spring and another 8 in the fall. Is Kingman a 12 month riding season?
Well it USED to be...I bought 40 acres here for $47k cash, sold 10 acres the next year for $140K and have a place for the horses free and clear. I have been cutting down on the horses though and sold eight in the last few months. Now we have a manageable amount to ride/train, have reworked the paddocks and bulit an arena. So yes it was worth it...
