the rancho

I’ve lived in the rancho for the past 2.5 years with my partner and animals. I was eager to move here, because it is one of the last places in Los Angeles, where you can keep horses in your backyard. The special neighborhood is tucked next to the LA river and runs through Burbank and Glendale. An equestrian bridge links the rancho to Griffith Park.

My partner decided she was up for a challenge and rescued a filly mustang. We’ve been training the horse, only on public parks, and trails in Griffith Park.

Every morning before I work, I exercise our horses, do ranch chores and chug some coffee.

Its hard to document because I’m often on horse back or horse in hand. Here are some images from the past few years.
