RE: Franz Hannesschlager
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Although I only had the pleasure of meeting learning from Frank once, he greatly impresses me. Not just with his ability with horses, but also with his way of treating you like a long time friend, even though you'd just met him. It brought tears to my eyes when my Mom told me this sad news. I'll always remember the way he introduced my Dad (who is half German) to his wife as Another old Kraut. He will be sorely missed. Amy Amy Evers Dun Lookin' Fjords Redmond, OR Fjord [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Several questions, and hello!
This message is from: katy/liz/bill/cha/afa/eda [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello from Pennsylvania! I have finally had a chance to sit down at the computer and write. My Fjord Jon and I are going to Fjord camp next Sunday and I am very very excited. Before I head off, I have three questions: 1) In the August 2001 Horse Illustrated article about beginning driving, there was a cute pic of a Fjord. Did anyone else see it? 2) In the June ( i think) issue of The Horse of Delaware Valley, there were three Fjord yearlings for sale in Maryland. Is someone on the list selling them? 3) Has anyone used a Mychley bit on his/her horse? I read that they are supposed to be more rewarding than snaffles and wondered if they were good for the quiet Fjord. Many thanks from Katy and the wonderful Jon who is gazing menacingly at his pony friend who just stood in the cross-ties for 2 1/2 hours while I pulled her exceedingly long mane.
Sterilizing a Bit/Driving Questionnaire
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I just throw my bits into the dishwasher periodically. They get shiney, too. I would also like to announce that I am compiling a Questionnaire about Driving Issues. This arose from a lot of back-and-forth on the CD-List about the ADS listening to the concerns of the ordinary driver. I do not consider myself very well-versed on the issues, just game enough to accidentally volunteer. (I suggested that a questionnaire be made and the challenge was thrown back to me.) My suggestion, my endeavor. I would like to have questions/concerns sent to my private e-mail as it is much easier for me to see individual mailings than to scan endless lists. I know lots of Fjord folk drive and some are ADS members, some not. This is a pretty open questionnaire and NOT breed specific. The original purpose was to bring our concerns to the ADS Ruling body, to be able to have everyone see at a glance where they were on the opinion continuum and to expedite the discemination of information. I hope those purposes hold up. I would like to send in my compiled Questionnaire by August with a publication in the driving magazine The Whip (maybe also Driving West?). Since EVERYONE does not get The Whip, I would hope that friends will copy the questionnaire and forward it to friends. The bigger the response from the driving community, the better for everyone. Thanks. Pamela Garofalo
