Hi Laurie! Where do you and OZ live?
BE sounds great, but too far from Texas for me and my Fjord Splendora
to join in the fun...oh well!
Thanks for the info!

Re: Silent Fjords, Jealous Fjords

Draako does show a jealous side to him as well. Heaven help me if I take his 
next door neighbor out first (oh please, he's just a quarter horse, why should 
he be first). And if I have been away for a few days, or longer, he will snub 
me for awhile until I finally win him back over. He is a funny guy.

find a blade of grass somewhere)

LOL, kay, i always have to chuckle when reading your posts.i think there
should be a special senior barrels class, for all us "mature
i-may-get-older-but-i-won't-grow-up" people, especially those of us who have
fjords that pretty
much only increase their speed to get to another pile of hay. they could time
it with a sundial, rather than spending money on a stop watch.i remember
at my first blue earth, when oz and i had never moved faster than a trot in
our, at that time, short association, when i went in for the barrel race i
told
the stewards at the gate that they may as well go for coffee while we do the
course :)

laurie, and oz, waiting to see joe yanish for some new footwear tomorrow. i
tried to let   him go barefoot, but he just can't handle it. talk about a
tenderfoot.

Folkehogskule directly translates to 'people school'. Folkschools take
anyone of any age, background or experience level. 
There are a few adults this year, and they seem to have a grand time.

Are not the qualifications that it be done in the time between high school
and college?  I graduated from high school.  I could plan to go to college.
There must be laws against age discrimination in Norway!
