I truly keep life exciting as I embark on yet another new adventure. I moved out to the West Coast sometime towards the end of May, and for those of you who are familiar with the area, I should be easy to find. Where the heck am I? Well, I’m just outside of Fort Langley [...]
Once again my co-pilot was accompanying me on an early morning drive. We were off to Carsland, Alberta with our trusted road map and directions in hand. The Fun Country Riding Club from Strathmore, Alberta was hosting 2 Jay O’Jay Horsemanship clinics and our mission was to find the location. After a few wrong turns [...]
It was early morning as we drove along and sipped from our “to go” coffee cups. My co-pilot was none other than Janet from the office. We were looking for a riding facility that was located somewhere in the picturesque countryside of Millerville, Alberta. We turn a few corners, drove some straight lines, navigated a [...]
I can honestly say 2008 was a busy year. How I managed to fit my entire schedule into one short year is nothing short of being amazing. Although my 2008 adventures were hectic at times, the enjoyment I got from connecting with so many people and their horses made it all worthwhile. Looking back, I’d [...]
Those mountains are a lot taller than one might imagine. I should know, I had to cross over them in order to move to Alberta. Incredible as it may seem, that process took me over two years. The good news is; officially, for the second time in my life, once again I’m an Albertan. Although [...]
From my window seat, my eyes followed along as a river laced its way through the quilted patchwork of the Canadian prairies.

It’s time for the episode you’ve all been waiting for: The First Ride! Jay has gentled this mustang enough that he thinks it’s time for Matt to get on for the first time. Check it out to see how it goes! This isn’t the last episode of the series though, so stay tuned.
Hello everyone, Colette here. I’m happy to announce the release of episode six in A Mustang Story: A New Perspective! In this episode, Jay does some fencework with the mustang. It’s a great technique to use before someone actually gets into the saddle, that’s for sure. Also, the very last segment of the interview with [...]
My truck was in four-wheel drive and I was hanging onto the steering wheel with my eyes wide open. It sure didn’t look like springtime in Alberta with all the snow and ice I was driving through. I was on my way to the Mane Event Horse Expo in Red Deer, Alberta for the 2008 [...]
Hi guys! This is Colette again. We’re up to episode five in One Man, One Horse – A Mustang Story. This is a very pivotal episode because this is when Jay first tries to get a saddle onto the mustang. Up until now, he’s been doing exercises with the horse to get her ready for [...]
