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.

The Old Man: Explain’ Our Sins
Howdy Friends! “Why is that?” The boy asked. “That’s not an easy one to explain,” the old man said. “But I’ll try.” He stopped brushing the mare, draped his arms across her back. “Ya see son, just about all of us find it easier to explain our sins, and even justify...
WHY WOULD ANYONE ANNOY A HORSE
Howdy Folks! A little while ago I came across a YouTube video about loading your horse on the trailer. Thinking I might enjoy the video I set aside 15 minutes to watch it and found it very interesting. It proved to be a very well done video. The trainer demonstrated...
NO PEW WARMERS
Howdy Friends! Throughout the Scripture, God’s people are intimately associated with both the battle campaigns and their victories. No one who was skilled in warfare was exempt from the battle, nor did any of the warring men seek to be excused from the battle....
IT WAS A DIFFERENT KIND OF MORNING
Howdy Friends! It was a different kind of morning. I sat with my mare Rosie, today it was she and I. Too cold I reckon for Kitties to leave their snug nests. Lady had long wondered back to the house. Now it was Kessy and me. A few birds chattered at the feeder, the...
The Old Man’s, Advice for Young People:
Howdy Friends! The old man sat watching the trees sway in high wind. To and fro they went, just blowing with the wind. He thought about young ones growing up today. It's easy to get caught up, led astray in our youth. He took a battered tablet from his shirt pocket,...
HELPING YOUR HORSE UNDERSTAND YOU:
Howdy Friends! It’s easy to help your horse truly understand you and requires no special training, clinics or instructors. First, we must truly want our horse to understand us, in our hearts and thoughts. Second, we must spend time, a good deal of it, just being with...
Once we defect to the Side of God, we become a threat to the ungodly.
Howdy Friends! It is obvious that Gibeon’s treason was the motivation for their hatred and their assault on the nation of the Gibeonites. Yet, Israel was bound by a blood oath to protect the newly assimilated nation as their own people. (Joshua 9:3) Consider a similar...
LET’S BE HONEST WITH OURSELVES:
Howdy Friends! Let’s be honest with ourselves. What, from the horse’s perspective, have we as advocates really accomplished in past decades? Thoroughbreds still started and raced before skeletal systems are even 60% mature—many broken down and discarded by age 3....
ESSAY ON LIBERTY
Howdy Friends! I'm going to comment on a subject so sensitive, yet so taken for granted that today it seems to be slipping from our grasp. Watching a clip recently about the Statue of Liberty,I was struck by the commentator, “Lady Liberty is the very essence of the...
