It is simple after two years of fighting the good fight and getting the operation up and running. One of our main partners had to pull out do to finical reasons of his own in the down turn of the sub-prime and commercial lending markets. Leaving a hole in our funding that we have not been able to replace with other funds to fully complete the project. The second reason I (Ray Miller) have reached a point in my life where I want to slow down a bit and enjoy personal time with the boss (Bobbie) out riding our own horses and doing a bit of traveling around the country to cowboy and equine events. I have lost two good friends in the past year in my age group, they retired but never had the time to complete their retirement projects or spend time with there love ones. The other reason is I just don't want spend time fighting the good fight looking for funding in a very tough commercial financial markets at present. I will be keeping my Auction and Appraisal business www.raymiller.ws <http://www.raymiller.ws/> and our saddle fitting business www.saddlefitting.net <http://www.saddlefitting.net/> Bobbie will continue on at Mc Farlane's in Sauk City with the animal health and tack department. She was a good race and the ranch has/had a lot of potential. But as the The Gambler has said, "you got to know when to hold them and when to fold them", this time I want to fold them
