Blue sky above ranch in Texas

21 acres, 14 animals, one poorly-built house,
endless love coupled with boundless chaos & stress.
It ain’t always easy, but it is always worth it.

Blue sky above ranch in Texas

I don’t want it all — just the best.

There’s not enough time to do it all, and who has the patience for that anyway? Certainly not me. I just know the best memories and happiest moments in my life involve open spaces, fast horses, and the loving presence of dogs.

Rainbow over a Texas ranch

About Flying Solo Ranch

Flying Solo Ranch is a humble one-woman Texas ranch powered by a passion for equestrian adventures, doggy snuggles, and living authentically outdoors, in nature, as God intended. At least for me.

Embrace the chaos

Twenty-one acres, six horses, four dogs, four cats, limitless outdoor experiences, boundless anxiety, and one craptastic house built by monkeys who had more confidence than skill. These are the stories of an imperfect but memorable journey on my small Texas ranch — an overwhelming but fulfilling labor of love.

Who this is for

Beauty is found in imperfections. At least that’s what I’m telling myself as I strive to overcome crippling perfectionism in order to live the best life possible on my beautiful plot of land. This blog is for like-minded individuals who’ve taken on way more than they can handle but manage it with humor, silent screams, and a refusal to seek help.
