A Dog Named Saturday
Coffee Clutch got its name from the blog posts I wrote for years from the barn sitting enjoying my morning coffee with my mare, dogs, kitties and chickens. Folks really enjoyed them. Coffee Clutch is more than a newsletter. It’s a visit, it’s information, it’s fun, it’s musings, barn talk, writing talk, bird talk, horse talk and faith thoughts. And of course, it’s all the news about A DOG NAMED SATURDAY, old new and coming soon.
I’ll share some of my works in progress, upcoming publications, and more. Folks enjoy “The Old Man on the Porch, and Grandpop too, so they’ll be dropping in.

MAKING DECISIONS – DEVOTIONAL
MAKING DECISIONS – DEVOTIONAL Howdy Friends! They’d been in the barn a while. Grandpop and the lad. I could see that as soon as I walked in out of the rain, by the size of the hay bale stack on the flat bed wagon. It was a cinch. Rainy days like this one, it was a...
ARGUING – DEVOTIONAL
ARGUING – DEVOTIONAL Howdy Friends! The long lane was always a welcome. Giant oaks on either side fenced in the lane, giving it a feeling of security. Horses and cattle behind the board fence gave a peaceful life to the rolling pastures. . I hadn’t planed on visiting...
MAINTAIN CORRECT EQUINE POSTURE
MAINTAIN CORRECT EQUINE POSTURE Howdy Friends! One reason Correct Equine Posture matters. #1 – Health, longevity, happiness. Okay that’s 3 reasons. I suppose I could list 10 more. But so often as I look at pictures on Social Media of folks happily showing their...
WE ARE ALL SINNERS – DEVOTIONAL
WE ARE ALL SINNERS – DEVOTIONAL Howdy Friends! It had been a rough week for the lad. The ‘issue’ wasn’t the big deal to Grandpop. The issue was how the lad had treated it when his folks told Grandpop. “We all get in trouble some time!” The lad tossed his hands in the...
OUR MEMORIES AND DREAMS OF HORSES WE’VE KNOWN
OUR MEMORIES AND DREAMS OF HORSES WE’VE KNOWN Howdy Friends! Our thoughts of our departed equine partners, I believe, are a connection to their spirits. Not merely memories, though memories are precious, but conduits by which we travel and visit with them again and...
