2017 Reflections
I believe life is short here on earth and as we get
older, I realize even more, to slow down and “smell
the roses”. Two of our great writers here at EHAL,
Shannon Rowl and Janice Pack, both recently
lost their children. Our hearts are so saddened for
these two women and their families. Please pray for
peace for them and anyone else you know strug-
gling, as we all continue our journey.
Rest in Peace - Skyler Gage Brown “Scooter”
Son of Shannon
Rest in Peace - Sue Ellen Vogler
Daughter of Janice
Looking ahead to 2018
It’s November and in a short time, it will be a new
year for goals and resolutions. This year our family
has been blessed with an ever evolving and grow-
ing business. But most important, it has been a time
for growth in our lives together.
As we look ahead to 2018, I love being able to
“live” life with people that I don’t get to see on a
regular basis and those I haven’t even met in per-
son. It’s fun to sit relaxing with my husband as we
“surf” the internet for information and talk together.
Who thought growing up we would have a world of
knowledge at our fingertips like this?
Technology works but it doesn’t replace face to
face, going to events, talking with young guns
coming out of college and with customers com-
ing into our feed and tack store. It doesn’t matter
what we are discussing, I love the fellowship. Our
family has had a great year and we look forward
to an even more exciting 2018. Our calendar is
getting full with events each week and weekends
are already booked at the Ranch! We are looking
forward to the 4H Kids, horseshows, the return of
mounted shooting, various horsemanship clinicians,
team roping, barrel racing, working cowhorse, stock
horse events, reining, saddle cleaning seminars
and more! What a line up for 2018!
Hope to see you all at EquiFest of Kansas in Tope-
ka on February 23, 24, 25, 2018 where you will find
“Everything Horses and Livestock”, great shopping,
clinics and more! Plan your summer to participate
in clinics, competitions and enjoy riding with friends
and family. Make Your New Year an exciting one!
