Howdy from icy,rainy NW Montana!
Lisa, I am jealous but not for long. We will be heading to AZ & CA around
th 17th to catch some sun, visit Lou's grandkids and ride Harleys
(motorcycles - at least they start with an H as in horse!). Will probably
need a horse fix somewhere along the line so if you live in those areas,
look out, you may get a desperate call to come pet one of your horses!
I keep putting the Sunday chat session on my list and it always seems to
run into a conflict but hope sometime to make it!
Sorry about the typos in the last E-mail. I had copied that part from a
Word document and I guess it does some strange things when sent over the
net. So, here is the correct info about the sculpture " Nordic Dance" and
hope it comes thru okay this time:
There are only 35 sculptures in this limited edition. The patina (the
color) can be traditional Classic French bronze or patterned after the
brown dun.
Each numbered piece is unique in its coloration. It measures13 1/4 X 7
inches and is priced at $495.00.
If you have any questions or would like to place an order, contact Jane
Campion at Box 161, Buffalo, WY 82834, or telephone (307) 684-0122.
Sini, your comments about hills helping sway backs was terrific.
"One thing which we think is very important to all horses is climbing,
and
for Fjords it may be even more natural than to many others. There is
one
Fjord mare here in Finland who is 18 years old, has had 8 foals - and
looks like a 9-year old. We think her secret is that she climbs steep
hills regularly. Our oldest mare's swayback, too, straightened out when
we added extra climbing sessions to our trail rides."
We have had older mares who had raised as many as 17 foals and still were
not swayed backed even though their backs could be considered a little on
the long side. Maybe it had to do with some good King Herald bloodlines but
I think the hills in their pasture had a lot to do with it but I never
really realized it until you mentioned the connection. Thank you!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Nancy & Lou
