This message is from: "starfirefarm" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Current Fjord Herald Advertisers have already heard this via an Email I sent
out this morningbut to other NFHR members and Fjord Herald subscribers --
I've got good news to share.

We're back on schedule!!!  What does this mean? You won't have to wait another
4-6 months to get your next issue of the Herald and you better hustle to get
us those articles and advertisements because the Fall issue's deadline is just
a little over three weeks away!

==
   The Fjord Herald's submission deadline
   for the Fall issue is S E P T E M B E R   1 ,  2 0 0 5 
===

More good news? Starting with the Fall issue, color 1/2 page and full page
Advertising space will be offered in every issue. The distribution of the
Herald continues to grow and is a good advertising value. The Ad rates are
listed in every issue of the Herald. For more information, to upgrade your Ad
to color, or to reserve space in the next issue, contact us at
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

I'd like to encourage all you budding writers to try your hand at writing us
about things you do with your Fjords, or events in your area. I'm sure most of
you do things that would be of interest to other Fjord enthusiasts. Some of
you, no doubt attended the Blue Earth show. I have the "official" class
placings -- but it would be great if someone would share their personal Blue
Earth experience and impressions. Was anyone there for the first time? What
about the special anniversary Norwegian Wedding ceremony? Here's another idea
-- an article about the Evaluation that is taking place this weekend ? Or


And, if you're like me, the first thing I do when you get your copy is to flip
through the entire magazine looking at all the photos. You can never have
enough Fjord horse photos!  I know that just about everyone has a digital
camera these days -- and they take nice high resolution files...so how about
sharing some of your favorite Fjord photos? The fall issue is traditionally
the Baby Fjord issue. Send us photos of this year's darlings. Please include
your name (or your farm name) along with the foal's name and the foal's dam
and sire. Don't bother to crop or alter your images-- we can "clean" them up
if needed and crop them as part of our layout process.

The files do need to be high resolution (at least 300 dpi/ppi at their final
print size) or a lab processed photo -- I'm sorry, but we cannot accept print
from your desktop inkjet printer. As far as files go, an uncompressed JPEG
file is the most common file format. TIFF formats are OK too.

We prefer to get the articles (in-line text in your mail message, text file
attachment or MS Word doc are all fine) and photos by Email. We have
high-speed internet so big files don't bother us,  but if you have a slow
internet connection you may certainly post them to us on a CD or hard copy
(include a S.A.S.E. if you want the photos returned).

Our mailing address is:
2012 Blue Mountain Ave
Berthoud, CO  80513

If you have ANY questions or ideas for articles that you'd like us to explore,
please don't hesitate to contact us.

If anyone FOUND a phone at Blue Earth we lost ours. Looked everywhere,
called the hotel ...not there. 

Pat - Did you look in your purse.? :)

Thanks for a great show at Blue Earth!!  We had a wonderful time and met 
many new people. 

Thanks again,

For all that have cell phones (I have lost mine twice) it helps to have HOME 
typed in as an address (I might just make it 1HOME now) that is how mine was 
returned (twice, did I say?). I might also put EMERGENCY in with my husband's 
phone programmed, never can tell.
 
THose Fjord babies now LOVE the hose, this is the perfect time of year to get 
them used to it, hot days, we hose off legs and bodies of needed every day as I 
bring them in.  Also, we are doing the "rain in the face" hosing of both mamas 
and babies, it will help when they need that fast emergency bath before a show 
that always happens someday...

***No need to go so far to shop.Even if you are not buying
another fjord right now, you could come "next door  to Ontario"
and just go "window shopping".Visitors are always welcome at
Deere Country Fjords.We have met a lot of fantastic people
because of our fjords!!!

Beautiful sunny day.  Finally a break in the humidity.   But last
nights rain put a stop to the grain harvest.

Pat,

 I don't mind at all that you shared my story ! I am so glad you got to
share in our "moment".
 I am truly blessed to find someone like Steve . I wish I knew what I did to
deserve all this cause I'd keep doing it !!

In the "in-hand trail"
Wayne stated he wanted to see how relaxed the young horses were at the
gate...I guess EATING the gate is as comfortable as you can get!!
I was extremely proud of BNF Ingwine with his manners. He is such a little
gentleman and is a joy to work with.

Steve left B.E. wanting to get a team (Hotovy's HELPPP) and wishing he had
brought a horse  to ride !

I must congratulate you as well. You had so many successes that week. I hope
you handle the show at Blue Earth next year as well..you did a wonderful
job. The plates were outstanding as were the ribbons...the people, great as
always. Everyone felt welcome,from the beginners (me), to the more
experienced.

For those of you that missed it, start planning for next year now. You will
not regret it.

I hope to see everyone next year !
Cheryl Gioia

Dear Lee,
I, too, just got my second Fjord and have decided they are even cuter in 
sets than they are one at a time!  Clementine came to me from NM via WY and 
represents my first long-distance shopping.  I love her already.  I hope you 
enjoy Reval as much!
