Hi Amy, I can understand your disappointment at being denied support for your parade. However, that said, I watch the Rose Bowl Parade every year and the thought of seeing Fjords in it was a huge opportunity for the breed's exposure and I was very proud to see them there. I helped support it in my small way. I have never heard of or seen advertised the Portland Oregon Rose Festival Grand Floral Parade and perhaps a lot of others have no knowledge of it either and that is the big difference. -- Cynthia Madden Las Cruces, NM cynt...@carriagehorse.com Sometimes you are the pigeon. Sometimes you are the statue. - Anon. In an alleged post-racist democracy, the image of the public sphere with its appeal to dialogue and shared responsibility has given way to the spectacle of unbridled intolerance, ignorance, seething private fears, unchecked anger and the decoupling of reason from freedom.
