This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi Fjord Fans! I don't often pop in with anything, but felt I needed to brag a bit about my wonderful gelding. Patrick (registered name Reidar) has been with my daughter Maggie and me for almost 1.5 years. He was in the fall of his second year when we purchased him. Certainly we've had our ups and downs with him because of his youth. However, he has remained gentle and patient with us. We discovered last summer we had pushed him too fast and decided to take his training back to basics. He has responded beautifully and has the most forgiving nature. As Patrick moves into his 4th year we are excited about the possibilities he offers us. In our eyes he is a pure champion! My heart just sores when I see him. To ride him is a pleasure! I'm so thankful for geldings! They are the level headed gentlemen that people like Maggie and me need to have in our lives. As Patrick gains a couple more years of maturity I know he will be one of the most trustworthy mounts any one could ask for! It will be exciting to see him show this year! Hurray for geldings! Pat McCurdy Cato, N.Y.
