I'm flattered! Although I'm a little perplexed about the time-line. I got Nansy in the fall of 1986, but didn't get involved with rec.equestrian right away. More like 1989, as best I can recall.... However, that does point out that there are many ways to "promote" Fjords. I'm not a breeder; I don't show; I rarely ride in public places. But, I talk (a lot) about my critters online, and over the years, I've answered questions from whomever expressed interest. There are at least 3 Fjord owners nearby who've told me that it's all my fault. ;-) Marsha Jo Hannah Murphy must have been a horseman-- [EMAIL PROTECTED] anything that can go wrong, will! 30 mi SSE of San Francisco, Calif. -------
