This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I went to our local farming store yesterday to pick up some stall mats and posts for fencing. As I was at the checkout stand paying for my purchases, I looked down. And my heart leapt for joy, as it always does when it sees a fjord foal. There, on the cover of our local horse market magazine, was a beautiful picture of a fjord baby. Looking further into the magazine, I saw that the foal was from Hesthaven, and inside was a little shot of a fjord being driven. I was excited, as you almost never see fjords featured on the cover of anything (well, except this year's Northwest Trail book has 2 fjords on the cover). That foal is beautiful, and a very nice representation of the breed.
BTW, when I showed the magazine to my husband, he said "Lassen? <sp?>...... THAT'S the lady who was the BEST western rider I saw at the evaluation, on this beautiful stallion". I remember he came home on the Sunday of the evaluations with glowing reports of this lady who could really ride. BTW, he didn't see Gail ride her reining horse, so don't be chagrined that he didn't say one of the TWO best western riders! <g>. Pamela
