Umm, I'd say that you are indeed a new horse owner, in my book. I believe I can say that, as I am not a new horse owner, having owned horses for 15 years, and having ridden for over 30. I'd suspect Judy is a bit more knowledgeable than you about Icelandics as well, since she has owned and ridden horses since her childhood, and has apparently visited Iceland on a number of occasions. Is that correct, Judy? Robyn S
