Welcome to the Rockin' Heart Ranch located in the Texas Panhandle. The horses are mostly foundation bred cow horses. We also raise Corriente cattle and Russ does some custom leather work.

Hope you sign my guest book and come often to see what's new.

I'm on 80 on my cpm machine. Gonna bump it up another 5 tomorrow, and at least get 90 before they come and take it away. I think I hate doing that the most. Hope you're doing well. Congrats on the new little one.

Oh! Oops. Kim said it was LAURA who broke her ankle. Sorry about that. But you got injured too? What happened?

The pond was deeper in some parts. I'm only 5'5 but my feet got wet when I just walked him across it. If you look at the video when I dive bombed into it and ran through, you can see how I got soaked from head to toe. :3

I heard from kim that you broke your ankle. :( Is that true? What happened?
