I'm not running for power or prestige—Nevada needs fresh, principled leadership with new ideas. I have an international network of finance pros I can plug into for the benefit of Nevada. Rapid change is coming to global finance; you need someone who can determine if an innovation is valuable or snake oil. This is not learn-as-you-go job.

You may not be a parent of a Child with cancer & awareness may not be a big priority. The day before my 11 year old Daughter was diagnosed, I wasn’t a cancer parent either. I took this picture because I never wanted to forget my Daughter’s precious hand. I remember studying every single line of my Ashley’s hand for hours because I knew her time on Earth was coming to an end because of brain cancer. I didn’t want to forget. If your Child is healthy, be thankful, love them, hold their hand & hug them EVERY single day because you never know… I would be so grateful for a follow & repost to keep my Ashley’s story alive. 🙏🏻 ❤️ Ashley ❤️ #Forever13

“A horse is the projection of peoples’ dreams about themselves — strong, powerful, beautiful — and has the capability of giving us escape from our mundane existence.” ~Pam Brown

Fall is here… the afternoons are pretty warm, but the mornings are cool and beautiful and all of the horses love it. After a long, hot summer, it’s nice to see them enjoying this. Some are even getting super furry already… Since yesterday we received $270 toward our big October fundraiser goal of $8,000, so we made it to $3,148. We are so grateful for the support so far, but we clearly still need help. We have to feed the horses, obviously, and we need more hay delivered for the hay room today. And the tractor has become an integral part of maintenance - shredding, manure control, tilling and box blading paddocks just to start. We are virtually crippled at the moment and I can’t keep up by hand. I try but I’m also a week out from 57 years old and while I think I’m pretty strong and now fairly fit for an old lady there are some things I just cannot do. And remember, a generous supporter has agreed to match a good portion of what we raise here. Thank you again to everyone who always helps us out.

I try to only beg for hay. I take care of things like the farrier and vet stuff (unless an expensive emergency), previcox, carrots, treats, etc. Much of that stuff can wait, but hay cannot. Begging is my least favorite thing but I have to beg for hay, it isn’t a choice. I do appreciate the help…
We raised $85 toward our July hay fundraiser so we are $3,915 short still. Grateful to those who have donated and retweeted, we still have a long way to go. Vid of the round bale feeders this morning. I’d like to get them replenished and so would these beasts (so would the next-door neighbor’s goat I guess!)

My 13 year old Daughter died from #BrainCancer 5,504 days ago. 💔 I would LOVE to see my Ashley’s name 5,504 times in comments for all the days she’s been missing. When you lose a Child, the most beautiful word you can hear is their name. ❤️ A Repost & Follow would mean the world to us to keep our Ashley’s story alive. 💜 𝒜𝓈𝒽𝓁𝑒𝓎 💜

Hay is needed for gorgeous horses. Can YOU help with a donation and/or sharing the information??
Mood: “It is the horse’s gift to connect us with Heaven and our own footsteps.” ~ Ronnie Sweet Now that things are returning to normal, four weeks post-kidney donation, it is time to start our May hay fundraiser! Everyone is really doing well, but rain is down (though we did get a tenth of an inch overnight last night, enough for everyone to roll and get good and muddy 😡) and pasture is low, so the herd is eating a ton of hay right now. Will you help us reach our goal of $4,000? We’d be so grateful… Venmo: @TheBridge-Sanctuary PayPal: thebridgeintx@gmail.com CashApp: $redransom Zelle: (626) 676-2556 Direct link: paypal.com/paypalme/thebridg… Photo of Bridget’s muddy back and Rad Chad’s handsome face under a pretty sky this morning.

Seriously, folks? There's no one out there who can help The Bridge Sanctuary fund hay for its horses? Please donate if you are able, and/or share the information widely. It's important.
After no donations came in yesterday we’re still at $410 toward the March hay bill, so still $2,590 short. We had to pay it, but now we don’t have funds for the farrier, Equioxx, fly control (they are returning with a vengeance with springtime), etc. It’s an evil cycle which is why we only ask for help with hay about 90 percent of for time.

Absolutely. I find it annoying when people assume everything is based on hard work. Even waking up healthy each day is based on probabilities.

Feed Bag Fundraiser Update- $779.00 Needed Unfortunately for our horses, ZERO DOLLARS have come in to purchase nutrition rich grain to help them through this Texas weather. Zero 💔 I will reiterate: YOU are our only source of help with these horses. Not one grant or magic money tree to shake around here. We ourselves give everything we possibly can but it simply is not enough to cover every experience. So please, help however you can. $1 to a share, helps. Anything to get us to our goal, helps. Each bag costs $19, and we need 41 bags. That's a grand total of $779.00. Absolutely every dollar amount towards the total helps greatly 🙏 paypal.me/PRRHorseRescue cash.app/$PRRHorseRescue Venmo @PalominoRidgeRanchHorseRescue Or if you donate with either a debit or credit card, our website is set up to accept those. The DONATE button is at the bottom of the first page. PalominoRidgeRanchHorseRescu…

Hollywood is here to let you all know that we are now $550 away from placing our $900 round bale order!!
