This message is from: "fjords" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi Teresa,
Glad you had so much fun! It was good to see you. The show committee did an outstanding job and everything went very smoothly. It'll be hard to top next year! Every time it was announced we needed volunteers for something or other they came in droves. It was absolutely awesome the way everyone stepped up to help make the show a success! We even had spectators who were non-fjord owner (but interested in them) come forward to see if they could help! I want to publicly thank you again for donating your entries to the Spring Fling last May when you couldn't attend. Nine people received "Teressa Kandianis Scholarships" for different activities because of your generous donation.

This message is from: "Teressa" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I'm just finishing up my new, nice barn and need to know if it is safe to seal the wood used for the stalls. They are tongue and groove and are left natural right now. Is it safe to seal the wood where they would have the access to chew on it? My horses are not cribbers but if there is food flavor or salt flavor, they will lick a piece of wood or whatever is carrying the smell. Are there brands or types of seal that would be better than others? Thanks for the help. Teressa Kandianis in Ferndale, WA Ps - I took my 3 fjords to Moses Lake and had the most fun I've ever had at a show. The big separate drive/ride warm up arenas were great. The indoor arena was fabulous with very good footing, a concession stand, great loudspeaker system there, office in there, well lit, good staging area. A very safe venue. There were lots of water hose bibs everywhere, lots of electrical hookups, I think 16 separate wash racks with plenty of hose bibs. Shade in the trailer parking area. Very pleasant for me and my horses. Volunteers showed up as we drove in - brought my bales of shavings right to the stalls. My Nina was a pill as usual - but the big driving warm up arena allowed us to blow off some steam and kept her from being over the top and we took first in both Open Pleasure Driving and Reinsmanship. She was fabulous - forward and on the bit and nice extension in her road trot. Karl F said I was actually smiling during my classes. I await Dan Watanabe's pictures to confirm that. And best of all - it was an easy haul from Ferndale - about 5 or 6 hours. Easy on me and my horses. The Show chairman and committee were well organized and the volunteers were all great as well. I'll be there next year.
