Hi Fjordies! Sue G. here with an update on Richard's trip to Georgia to deliver a horse. He will be leaving on April 1(April Fool's Day). Ha! Ha! Yes, he really is. The move will be made in our big stock trailer, we have a carriage to pick up in Bristol, VA on the way down or back. Plenty of room for horses or freight going south or north. **The list has been great with all the different topics lately. My vote for appreciation for Mike May as our Registrar! **Alot of answers to questions about the Standard and correct pictures of the Norwegian Fjord are on the NFHR Web Site. Just type NFHR and search on any web page and it will bring it up for you. ** The FHI (Fjord Horse International) is alive and well! Those of us who went to Norway last year got to attend the Annual Meeting of FHI. Would alot of you be interested in seeing the info about FHI? Mike, could this be a button on the NFHR website? Not that you really need anymore work! Email me privately and I will send it to those who want it. **Richard and I spent a wonderful day outside today working with and ground driving "Monte" (Diamonte"!) . He has remembered his lessons well, we weren't able to do anything with him since the end of Nov. ,when Richard had his heart attack. The sun was shining and it was actually almost 40 degrees. I started to do manes today. Actually, to see what I can resurrect. Tomorrow will be another sunny day in the 40's. Wow! Heat wave! **I had an embarrassing moment today when I was making kissing noises and snapping my fingers to get the baby pygmy goat to come to me and let me scratch her back. "She" came over and stood there letting me scratch "her" all over and when my fingers went down "her" hind legs I felt this funny little bump! OOOOOPPSSSSS! Felicity had turned into a Felix!!!!!!! How old should he be when I "geld" him? We used to do the lambs (dock and crimp the jewels) at about a week old. Is it the same with these little goats? Some of you have talked about them in the past. *** OK, back to Fjords. Deb in Erie, Pa. , we in NE have had a few draft clinics in the past, teaching how to harness, farm equipment, logging. I will let you know if anything comes up. How about it Dave McW. , why don't you have a logging clinic at your farm and get some more trails put thru?!! Just a thought! Bye all for now! Sue g.
