Sinopsis

Welcome to our year of living compactly. My dog, Mister, and I took to the road pulling our A-frame trailer, the RollinâÇÖ Rancho. IâÇÖm a traveling horse trainer/clinician, who became a non-essential worker during the COVID-19 lockdown. Then, in 2022, we bounced back. We were nomads looking for horse training adventure and liver treats. Work paid for the trip, it was part clinic tour, part travelogue, part squirrel hunt. But mostly an unapologetic celebration of sunsets, horses, RV parks, roadkill, diverse landscapes, and undomesticated women.ItâÇÖs a book made of made of adjectives and nouns, blue skies and tornado watches, resorts and reservations, open roads to the horizon, and one-lane dead-ends. We emerge from the truck in a cloud of dog hair and sunflower shells, like disoriented and scruffy rock stars in a GPS haze, not entirely lost or found.This book isnâÇÖt about training, although there are horses in it. ItâÇÖs a follow-up ofáStable Relation, my first book, but my life changed in ways I would never have guessed, so donâÇÖt expect the usual sequel. Undomesticated Women is a travel memoir, a peek behind the curtains of what my job is like. I wanted to see this beautiful country, do some time travel, and explore thoughts and memories now that IâÇÖve become a gray mare.Mister would tell you itâÇÖs his memoir about being tasked with the unreasonable job of guarding me against a wild range of dangers. Like eating dinner late. HeâÇÖs a dog unimpressed with my tiny fame.
