"Yet I will show love to the house of Judah; and I will save them—not by bow, sword or battle, or by horses and horsemen, but by the
LORD their God."
Hosea 1:6-8

My home ranch, the Lazy JS Ranch in Bowman, ND celebrated 50 years of
production sales in August 2009. For this special anniversary, I compiled a tribute
to our family, special friends and some special horses that have made it all
possible. I hope you enjoy watching as much as I enjoyed making it!

Our life philosophy can be summed up by a beautiful poem written by Theresa Whitmarsh-Berryman and
featured in the book, Believe, A Horseman's Journey by Buck Brannaman
(A bosalita is defined as a decorative bosal secured in the forelock. It has no real function; it is jewelry to honor the horse and his/her
accomplishments.)

I yearn to earn the right to wear the bosalita someday.
As I'm passing through the Light at the end of my life,
I hope I'll feel my Lord carefully tie it in my hair,
A symbol that I allowed the Master to complete His work with me.
That after I balked and braced, I yielded to His hands,
When I stalled out, uncertain, I learned to move forward, freely following His lead,
That when I flew in fear, not caring for my fate, but only for my fear,
I learned to slow my feet and wait on Him, until sure of Him,
I ran with faith, swift and certain and true, in the paths He made for me.
