ABOUT STORI STABLES
Hello! I'm Danelle, the Person in Charge of Everything here at Stori Stables. Two things about me as a kid - 1) I begged and begged my parents for riding lessons and a horse. I used to write "horse" on my Mom's grocery list. 2) I was very envious of Pippi Longstocking. (If you don't know who I'm talking about, Google it - you'll be envious of Pippi too.)
​
My parents gave into the riding lessons when I was 9, figuring I'd "get it out of my system". They bought me my first horse, Tori, when I was 14.
​
As for the Pippi Longstocking lifestyle, I never did get a monkey (maybe because I neglected to write "monkey" on the grocery list) and my adventures were much tamer.
​
Today I'm lucky enough to have my horses at home on our sweet little spot in Sebastopol, CA. Brian, my very indulgent husband, and I raised our two kids here. Our oldest is off at college and our youngest is a senior in high school.
​
Stori Stables is home to a herd of quirky animals. No one is ever surprised if they find a chicken cruising my living room, a bunny helping in the office or a pony in the kitchen! (Pro tip - make towel "pathways" to keep pony hooves from slipping on hardwood floors.) That's just the kind of household I have! But I still don't have a monkey. Maybe someday! Actually, I'd really rather a parrot.
​
I can't wait to share the Stori Stables herd's adventures with you!
