Hi,
I'm wondering how many states own a horse park? I know KY, MD, CO, NY have
horse parks. Please respond to my email as to any other state owned and
operated horse parks.  Thank you very much.

Sweaty Fjords During Winter

Joe (7 year old gelding), gets pretty sweaty after an hour of steady ring work 
or trail riding - soaked to the skin sometimes.  Aside from getting him into 
better condition - how do I handle this with his long winter coat and colder 
temperatures?  I've never needed a cooler sheet for my other horses because 
they dried so fast, but should I be putting him in one?  I have been brushing 
his hair up and back until his body cools down to a normal temp, but do I need 
to stay with him until he dries completely?
 
Kate and Joe (basically, the best pony ever)





The Bolinskis were here

I was delighted to have Martie and John Bolinski stop by today to see Gunnar.
Gunnar was mud covered, mane is growing out but they loved him.  How did that
horse know to back up to Martie for a tail rub?  He has never done that to me
and my first thought was he was threatening her. But he knew a Fjord person.
Then my old boy, Trakehner, who has been going at a weaving gait put on a
canter and extended trot, he only fell twice but in the same slippery spot,
and wowed even me considering I had been thinking of putting him down the day
before.  Vet thinks he may have EPM.

So we all enjoyed their visit and they are delightful people.

Hi:

Yes, the OR Fjord Club is raffling off the colt, Rikmann. The proceeds are 
being split between the OR Fjord Club Expo Fund, Savannah, and the Norwegian 
Fjord Horse Foundation. You can read the details and see pictures of Rikmann at 
www.hestehaven.com You can also see samples of the Fjord Christmas Cards there 
too!

 It's been some time - and I've lost the urls I had before ...

 but ...

 could someone please post the name or website url, for the larger Canadian
 seller of Fjords? They had a counter part in the US as well. The two
 ladies
 knew each other well, sometimes worked together. Ring any bells?

 Time makes the memory dim ... am hoping to re-connect my old information.
 I
 gave up, for a time, after my disastrous attempts to retrain 17 yr old
 Loki
 from team driver to saddle (results were two hospital trips, a shoulder
 *still* healing from Jan's injury, almost $2,000 in trainer's help, and 8
 months
 of trying wasted.)

 I do have a Haflinger now that is a great trail riding companion (6 yrs
 old,
 behaves well under saddle.) This spring, am thinking of getting a second
 horse -- am firm on a draft pony. Fjords and Haffies were always
 neck'n'neck
 in my eye! ;-)

I think I am confused ( not a surprise to those who know me ha,  ha). Is the 
raffle for the Fjord Rikmann being raffled for the Oregon Club or  for 
Savannah? The card sale money goes for Savannah?

Is the Fjord being raffled the same Fjord that was being raffled for  the 
Oregon Fjord Club?
