Chief!!



The longing for the days where Park Pacifica Stables and Bud Butler were a staple in my life.  How those times were the days where as you can witness Kate on Chief and Zest working the Arena for the harness of what today requires me to say, I love the facts.

True to form is the method of reality.  As this young mare that the owners had given up on came my way while living in Sacramento, California.  Kate was always in the thirst of riding as she would wet her lips to tangle her thought to her next ride.  This mare was a bit of a rogue, kind as she was she still would have jumped the Moon to land an earth (spooked a lot) and that made her a best practice.  This mare found her home with a Man that rode her off to Southern California (actually he hauled her to SoCal in a gorgeous four horse horse trailer).


A young thoroughbred colt came in a trade.  The balance of that dynamic strap was his brother.  A thoroughbred, dark bay and for the breaking of that colt this colt came to fact in memory as this young horse is in a pasture in Arlington, Texas. 

Sadly in a freak accident the colt from Paso that looks just like this your whipper snapper snapped his canon bone in that pasture where we had rented our 3 bedroom. 

It was a cold, brisk morning in Paso Robles and that young red colt and the other horse made the rounds by a galloping morning display of just feeling good.  That young colt lost his footing, he went down on his side and I just happened to have seen the entire thing out the window as I was enjoying their frolic, had I not been watching I would have not believed it. Oddly,  I told somebody at the time that I thought he should trade the breaking for the dark bay as this young colt looked a bit thin down there.  As the morning held by breath and as that colt got up he hobbled, I went immediately out the back door and low and behold my draw of air was suffocating, he snapped his canon bone straight through and the only thing hanging that leg on his leg just below his knee was hide.  I immediately went to the landlord who had a Training Facility and said we need a gun.  He turned and looked admitting I looked whiter than a sheet with his expressed serious of respond.  I said my horse just snapped his leg clean off.

He came in his quick after retrieving his gun and sure enough he said go on back in the house.  No Veterinarian could have made it as we were a good hour from town and who really knew where the large animal Vets were that particular day.  In agreement with my chopped horror that landlord was so kind.  He said get the kids away from the windows, I did as he said and that is the end of that story.  Thank goodness for Ranchers.  Be it Paso or Texas I am so grateful for that Rancher.




Kate loved Boris. He was a Northern Dancer colt bought out of the Keeneland Sales Barn.  He was a tosser of a gathering storm but he came to be the lover of my two kids, Rebecca and Kathleen (Kate).  His pedigree was a bomby one as those colts were known to be of a difficult song as their Sire was a tumbler.

This Is Painting The Brush: And word Now{jerry dyer Mayor of Fresno] the tittle to this word Peace is word tittle equated word Titled: An Elephant On steroids: Jerry Dyer Jerry P. Dyer is the City of Fresno’s 26th Mayor, sworn into office on January 5, 2021. Mayor Dyer came into office with a vision of uniting Fresno – seeking an inclusive, prosperous, beautiful city where people take pride in their neighborhoods and community. A government that listens, keeps its promises, and is owned by the people. This is his “One Fresno” vision. Upon assuming office, the Mayor’s Administration successfully implemented “Project Off-Ramp,” an initiative that relocated more than 600 unhoused residents off Fresno’s freeways and into safe housing, with the goal of permanent housing and a productive life. Another successful initiative is focused on improving the City’s curb appeal. Mayor Dyer’s “Beautify Fresno” initiative has not only cleaned up neighborhoods across Fresno, it has also driven an unprecedented rise in volunteerism, with residents gathering on weekends to pick up trash in neighborhoods far from their homes. In 2022, Beautify Fresno efforts not only met the Mayor’s challenge of collecting one million pounds of trash, but exceeded the goal in just six months. In other neighborhoods, Mayor Dyer continues to prioritize housing of all kinds, ranging from affordable to workforce to market rate. An adequate, affordable housing supply that serves all markets is evidenced in the Mayor’s One Fresno Housing Strategy. Mayor Dyer has a long history of investing in Fresno’s youth. A former board member of the Boys and Girls Club, he has prioritized youth investment by launching several initiatives including the One Fresno Youth Jobs Corps program. This program provides hundreds of hard-to-hire youth and young adults the opportunity to gain life and work skills through a City-paid internship designed to lead to City of Fresno employment and, ultimately, resources for homeownership opportunities. The program aims to help underserved youth and young adults, including those from low-income families, who have been touched by the criminal justice system, or have been in foster programs. Other youth investments include the launch of Fresno Chaffee Zoo Days, and the 2021 renovation and reopening of Camp Fresno. Through Mayor Dyer’s One Fresno Foundation, the camp provides youth the opportunity to experience nature, the outdoors, and memories that will last a lifetime. Mayor Dyer continues to lead ongoing efforts to revitalize the City’s core, as highlighted in the recent awards totaling nearly $300 million for public infrastructure throughout Downtown Fresno and Chinatown. His most recent initiative includes a free trolley service connecting downtown to Fresno State via the Mural and Tower Districts, Fresno City College and the Blackstone Corridor. The Mayor’s vision includes a vibrant downtown, where people live and enjoy a lively entertainment scene with thriving businesses serving residents as well as those who work or visit Downtown Fresno. Before he was elected, Mayor Dyer served 40 years in the Fresno Police Department, including the final 18 years as Police Chief. He has the distinction of being the longest-tenured police chief in Fresno’s history. This experience gives him unique insights into the City’s operations and has helped drive a motto that is central to his One Fresno vision – “We Work For You.” This is his compact with residents, a promise that city government’s role is to serve the public. It also ensures his continued work to enhance public safety throughout Fresno. Mayor Dyer was born in Fresno but grew up in the Fowler area and graduated from Fowler High School. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Criminology from California State University Fresno and a master’s degree in management from California Polytechnic University at Pomona. Chosen as a Paul Harris Fellow for Rotary International, Mayor Dyer was recognized in 2018 with a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Fresno County Office of Education. Mayor Dyer has been married to his wife, Diane, for 43 years and has been blessed with two children and five grandchildren. He and his wife attend New Covenant Community Church in Fresno.
