Hi Kay .. welcome to the List .. usually I send these notes privately but as I've had several enquiries pre-Xmas .. I thought I'd tell everyone that I have a stock of leather long lines, made by Olaf Nyby .. who's coming to PA to work with Saddlebreds, I believe, this month .. and the stock is fast depleting. It takes me about 3 weeks to get them in, from the time I send him an order to when he fills it .. some of you who have purchased them from Olaf at clinics know how nice they are .. supple and with enough weight that they don't wave around like ribbons as some of the nylon ones do. Here's the link to the page of my website where you can see pictures of them .. www.wakerobinfarm.ca/prod.html You can order over the Net, and pay by Visa/MC .. but I have only 3 sets left out of this batch. The next will arrive in mid-January. And as a by the way, I am SO glad to have my email again . we had an early winter storm and our power has been out for 4 days .. we ran out of stored water 2 days ago and have been trucking it in half filled water tanks, after loading with buckets from a stream that flows all winter .. on a hill, with ice. Not pleasant. But that's par for the course, these days, since they privatized the distribution of electricity in Ontario. And this morning we heard that the generator we have had on order for months and was due in this week ... won't arrive till January at the earliest. I should have learned my lesson after the ice storm 5 years ago where we were out for 12 days (actually ME all alone as my husband had cleverly headed into town the day before it hit, thinking driving might be problematic). Our 8 horses are all getting frozen muzzles from eating snow and they rush to the barn when they see "the water truck" when it arrives! I'm about to go and fill all the buckets and other containers while we do have power because they are predicting high winds which means more branches to fall on the lines.
