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.

CONSIDER THEMSELVES CHRISTIANS

WHEN WE LOOK AT A HORSE’S HOOF
Howdy Friends! When we look at a horse’s hoof, we should see one of the most important parts of the anatomy of the horse. There’s that old saying, “No Hoof No Horse.” So then why do so many do so much to harm that hoof? What does the hoof do . The part that moves on...
WHAT ABOUT FLIES & HORSES
