That dream has never left me. My mind often wanders to day dreams of what I would make Dream Ranch today. There are thoughts of mustangs, of having an after school "homework and horses" program, a dressage ring and an "extreme" trail course, well, you probably get the idea.
I haven't given up on my idea, but lately I am torn. Right now I am in Florida, down in Miami. Dream Ranch isn't gonna happen in Miami and we don't plan to stay here more than 3-4 years. The talk after that is to possibly go back to Washington or to go north in Florida up between Ocala and Orlando somewhere.
I miss the mountains and I miss friends and family in Washington. What I worry about, is there any where to build my Dream Ranch in Washington? I don't want to step on anyone's toes and I fear I would be laughed at for such an endeavor.
Ocala is definitely horse country. Rolling hills and horse farms all over. From Thoroughbred farms to Friesian breeders and everything in between. My mother-in-law keeps sending me links to property for sale up that way. They hope to retire up near Orlando in about 5 years and would like their children and families to be nearby.
Could I build my daydreams in Washington?

I remember those days of daydreaming. I use to write every horse breed I could think of on a piece of paper, then draw one out to figure out what breed I was going raise and train. Yep, all girls definitely go through that!
Your dream can definitely come true, and in Washington! Don't worry about stepping on anyone's toes, just do what you want to do and know that you will have the support of your family, friends and so many other people! I have had lots of dreams about rescuing horses and rehabilitating them. I would need more property to do something like that, but I definitely would have the support network to do it when I am able too.
Follow your dreams!!
