I will definitely support/ help put on/ participate in an evaluation in Virginia. Since you mentioned it though, I'm going to be a little selfish and tell you what I would really like best; A conformation evaluation here on our farm in North Carolina. If it were financially feasible, Barb and I would love to have every single one of our 18 Fjords evaluated for conformation. Since Jane and Harlan Sawyer are also here in NC with 13 Fjords, assuming they would want to participate, we might try to work out the following: Pay the evaluators for two days work which would include a conformation evaluation (open to everyone) here in Salisbury, then one at the Sawyer's in Asheville (also open to anyone else), and then swinging up to Virginia for another one or two conformation evaluations. Perhaps the Stifels would want one; If so, that would be eastern VA. We would have to pay for/ provide means of travel for the evaluators, and it would be two busy days, but I would think it's workable. Evaluating only for conformation should be much quicker and easier than including the performance parts. How about it - who within driving distance of Charlotte or Asheville, NC, or somewhere in the state of Virginia (that's real helpful isn't it), would be interested in a conformation only evaluation in 2000?
