Where is my ballot??
This message is from: "Frederick J. Pack" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> According to Page 7 of the Fjord Herald, ballots were supposed to be mailed out on October 1st. Perhaps they are coming from the East coast via a Chinese Tramp steamer just now entering the Panama Canal?? We haven't got ours yet. Has anyone?? Also, when certain things were removed from the By-Laws, they were supposed to be moved to the Operations Manual. Where is the Operations Manual and how can a member find out what is inside. Ballots need to be verified by more than one person. Not that I doubt the integrity, or honest of anyone, but perhaps we need to bring up the old saying: "Trust, but verify." I thought that a three person group was supposed to be formed for this election. So far, I have heard nothing about it. What gives with the BOD. Are we too dumb, not be informed of what is going on??

Not the ONLY Ungelded Son....
This message is from: Lauren Chumley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hello List, Just wanted to clarify... In an earlier post it was stated that GVF Odin is the ONLY ungelded son of Fernando. PCF Vidar owned by Neil and Ruth Sorum is also an ungelded son of Kastanjegardens Fernando and he will be three years old in 2006. Lauren Chumley Sorum Fjord Farm Lebanon, OH

Go there for more info. There may be other Fjords listed but I didn't search the whole database: Vanessa Horses name: Mikael Tattoo # 261-B Breed: Norwegian Fjord Horse Sex: gelding Date of birth: 8/12/1987 Microchip # 42557E5B76 Last known registered owner: Mikael was my horse companion from 1990 to 1996 in the Arlington, WA area. My husband and I donated him to EquiFriends Therapeutic Riding Program located in Snohomish, WA. They only kept him for about 6 months. There was no information on where he went. Later, I found information on the last registered owner at the NFHR.com website. Her name is: Cynthia Vallecillo of San Bruno, CA. Two email inquiries to her have gone unheeded. The email address was to a business. My guess is she no longer works there. Calling the listed phone number was useless. I really would like to know how Mikael is doing. And how he wound up in San Bruno, California and where he might be now. Or if he is still living. I'm hoping someone from that area will see this request and help me find out how Mikael is doing and where he might be located now.

buying trailor and truck
This message is from: CHERYL GARNICA <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> RE: trailers: Looked into the specifics this summer, haven't bought yet either. Asked around and googled it, also good article on what to look for in Horse Illustrated couple of months ago. If you haven't bought a truck yet, then calculate the total wt. you will tow. Should include trailer wt. plus horse wt. maximum, plus tack/feed/anything else you will put in the trailer to tow. Then look for truck that can actually pull that wt. loaded. Manufacturers book that comes with truck has the figures and how to calculate what you can safely tow. May want to add 300# at least for margin of error to your loaded wt. just to be safe (or so I was told!). Besides unsafe overloading trailer wt. wise, the stability of it and engine or transmission burn out rate high if overloaded for what truck can pull. If you have the truck alreadystill figure out the max wt it can tow, still add up your figures. I have an F 150 and figured (maybe erroneously!) that with tack, two horses 2300# approx. etc, I'd be looking into an aluminum or lighter trailer. Someone told me that some of the F 250 engines are the same as the 150sso you gotta go back to the gear ration/wt ratio stuff. Think I googled an article on it...if I come across it I'll post the site. Hope it helps...most guys that tow get into these numbers and can be good source of advice...I don't always believe the sales people... Cheryl in S. Cal

This message is from: Dagrun Aarsten <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi Vanessa (and Karen), check out "photo of the week" on Bay Area equestrian network - www.bayequest.com. There he is! I know Cindy (and Mik) but haven't seen her for a long time (I moved from California two years ago). Mik is having a great time, going on lots of trails and is loved to death by Cindy. I don't have updated contact info for her, maybe Brigid does?

Driving vacation and Fjord Calendar
This message is from: "Carol Tacey" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi Fjord Friends, I just returned from a week driving my Fjord at Wildwood Stables in Arcadia National Park, Maine. What a great place to drive. The trails are beautiful and pristine. The carriage roads were built by John D. Rockefeller in1915 and cover over 11,000 acres of land. When we were not on the trails, you could find us out getting a Maine lobster dinner, too good. For more information on Wildwood Stables http://www.acadiamagic.com/WildwoodStables1.html Have you ordered your 2006 Fjord Calendar yet? www.painteasy.com/calendar.html This is the FIRST ever all Fjord calendar featuring Fjords from United States and Canada.

Re: driving
This message is from: M Korose <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Warren You sound like a very careful and considerate driver, also knowlegable. It seems that you are going above and beyond in your training methods and being very through. I might think that your heart and mind are a bit worried tho. While I think a driver should always have cautions in mind, take every care, watch ahead, be psychic you should also have fun. If you have a positive, definite attitude when you are driving, it will translate to your horses. I hope that mine sure don't know that I only weigh 10% of their weight (sans carriage) and they think I am 10 feet tall and in control. Make sure your confidence shines thru as I am POSITIVE that our mindset is felt by the horse(s) riding and driving. (ALL - remember the previous threads on visualizing while riding? It works while driving too). Marsha in VA where we are going to visualize doing great in our last CDE of the year - end of Oct
