Equine sanctuary gets permanent home

Dear Editor, Caring Hearts for Horses Sanctuary and Equine Outreach is relocating one final time. Since their arrival into the non profit sector here in Mohave County, they have been searching for a permanent home in Golden Valley. Thanks to a special Santa this dream has come true. This permanent home will allow CHH to stay available as a sanctuary for special needs and abused horses, a place for horse owners to reach out to and a stable place for teens and at-risk youth to work with horses learning essential life skills in their Equine Assisted Learning Program.

It’s Enough

Dear Editor, Another writer would have us believe she has an insight into knowing what the future will bring with the Biden/Harris administration. That said she then goes on to display ignorance about the founding of this nation by stating, “the Christian values the country was founded on.” This tells us she has either never read the Treaty of Tripoli, or she chooses to ignore what it states. The logical questions is why would people escape religious tyranny only to institute policy which binds them to one religion? What about freedom to worship faiths such as Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism,…

Blue or Merry Holiday Season?

Dear Editor, Now is the time to develop your plan for avoiding a blue holiday season and having a merry holiday season. I love Elvis’ song Blue Christmas, but I don’t want to have one. However, In the best of times holiday blues strike most people. If you are missing a significant person in your life the blues are inevitable. You miss them sitting at your table. You miss them coming in your home. You are reminded of how much that person meant to you. Holiday shows don’t often help. While some are festive, they often remind us of the…

Reader unhappy with Social Democratic process

Dear Editor, If you disagree with what I am about to write, you can throw it away or swear at me. If you agree, please forward this to all your contacts. I believe this subject is critical to us as individuals, but more importantly, to our country. I have written on this subject before, but now our daily paper will no longer print my writings because they “promote hatred and dissent”. There can no longer be any doubt whatsoever, in anyone’s mind, that the far left wing of what used to be the Democrat Party has shed all their cloaks…
