Re: What does this mean???
This message is from: Jean Ernest [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the Norwegian evaluation system, 2.pr is second Premium awarded to mature quality stallions and mares 4 years or older who have proven themselves capable of producing offspring of acceptable quality. 1.pr. is only givewn to stallions and mares 10 years or older of quality who have produced several offspring of good quality. So 2.pr. is quite good! All of this information is in 'The Record Book'. Jean in Fairbanks, Alaska, sunny but cool, some snow showers predicted this weekend. 45 degrees today, 25 tonight. leaves are falling! :( Can sombody explain what this classification means 2.pr, 2.premie? This is my mares rating and I was wondering what it really means. Is it good or marginal or what? AnnMarie in Massachusetts. Still warm and dry for September.
Riding with sore knees
This message is from: Sue [EMAIL PROTECTED] I was reading a few digests ago, about one of you having something wrong with your knees. Well it must be catching. My left knee has an egg sized lump, (dr. says its a Bakers cyst) on the back side of it. My knee is so sore I can barely bend it or go down steps. I am to see an orthapedic surgeon on the 15th of October. If I ride at all this fall, I fear I will have to mount from the wrong side and not use a stirrip for that leg. Anyone ever try getting on and riding this way? Wonder what my 3 year old colt will think? Blasted knee...any of you have any idea what could have caused this cyst to form? I did not injure my knee that I know of, yet the xray show no signs of osteoarthritis. The gp did say that the bones in my knees had narrowedhe says as a result of getting older(I am 55). Do you think I could bust the cyst if I ride??? I am really itching to get on again and did not ask the dr. what he thought of me ridingI think he would say no...but am open for suggestions and any ino you might have. We went to the woods again on Thursday, and the team yarded out 14 lengths of hardwood. They are awsome. We drove over in the wagon and I moaned and groaned with my knee as I was doing the usuallugging the peevee and holding the boys. *grin* Well hope you can advise me about my kneeall comments welcome.
