Hi,
Are you doing tattoos now?  All this Blue Earth talk is making me very 
jealous, but I will sit here in my wheel chair on the internet doing 
damage to the check book on the Fjord place on ebay.

Hooray Jean that you have rain.  I have been worrying about your fire
situation there.  We had 97 degrees today and no wind. Horses are sweating
but old Gunnar still has his head down on the dry grass in the usual Fjord
position,   Jean G.

couldn't resist) I am so happy to see that others make boo-boos as well as
myself. =)

Hello List,
 Just arrived back home last evening after a lovely little get-away up 
north to Lumby, BC.  It never stops amazing me how beautiful that drive (about 
6 
1/2 hrs) is and how calming.  I went up for a visit to see my friend Ursula  
and to take in her expertise with a good driving lesson.  I learned areas to 
work on and areas I was becoming better at, all valuable info as I continue to 
prepare for Libby. The Jensens as well as being professional horse folk , have 
the gift of hositality. I had a black bear run across the road in front of me 
as well as a herd of wild turkeys:)  what a blessing to be part of such 
events.  I am always sad to leave..missing Ursula and the fun we always have 
even 
before I am down the driveway...  I am looking forward after two years absence, 
to seeing you all at the Libby eval and show.  I hope you are all enjoying 
the hot summer and are busy getting ready as well.  See you soon, Kathleen 
Rollins, Cornerstone Fjords, Deer Park, WA

Thank all of you for your answers to my breeding question. I will consider 
all comments, as I am not in any hurry to make a decision, next year or in 
6-7 years or never. What age do you usually stop breeding a healthy fit 
mare? She is a very busy girl right now, doing an open show this weekend 
with a 13 year old.
Mark, I haven't researched the gray Fjord genitics, but I did breed my 
Palomino mare to a Bay with a chestnut gene and ended up with a Black.  Go 
figure.

Thanks again to all
Debbie in MA
