For those who want to get back in the saddle again — or get in it for the first time — there’s no better place to be this weekend (April 16-19) than the Blue Rock Farm on County Road 150 West. There, cowboy Bryan Neubert was conducting a riding clinic at the farm, owned by John Keaney.
Neubert is the man in the red shirt in the first photo below as well as some other photos. He trains rider and horse to work in unison, with mutual respect.
Here are some photos showing one of his training sessions on Thursday, April 16.
