You might not like him, but he’s one hardheaded son of a bitch that’ll get the job done!
Each of the men in these photos meet that description!
Dedication to a task and the drive and determination to overcome all odds is what it takes to win a war.
We are in a war of differing opinions and philosophies.

My father often says the United States Civil War never ended.
I tend to agree with him on this issue.
Will people ever come to a consensus for peace? this doesn’t mean we have to agree on everything but we need to find the peace.

Makita trimming intro

04/04/2021

Hello All, This morning is about New Beginnings....

Welcome to my new page: The Good, The Bad, The Ugly, and The Real

A page dedicated to Equine Hoof care and Health Care
On this page I'll be primarily introducing and showing you the use of a battery powered Makita grinder (mini-router) for use in the Equine Hoof Trim.
If you feel the need to comment, Please keep it nice and friendly.
This is to be an educational page, Not a criticism page.
I try very hard to be kind and fair to humans and animals. Horses can be extremely challenging at times. Please understand this as they have a flight or fight instinct. I do the best I am able with the knowledge I have.
I hope you enjoy this educational journey!
