I've seen a few Hackneyish minis. Under certain judges, they win. There was a Hackney judge doing the money classes at Congress a few years back…man was that a long day. It was obvious where he was from. I’ve seen a couple do quite well at Nationals in the last couple of years as well. It...

Excellent point Carol. I wasn't trying to discount the top trainers or imply that "one is as good as another", but I see where my last post almost sounded like that. Indeed, sometimes you truly do get what you pay for.

Whitney, Grandpappy always told me that the only things not negotiable in life are the things that you are too scared to ask for. Your well-established trainers have developed a method that works for them, but they are usually willing to listen to ideas. There are plenty of young trainers out...

As much as it pains me to do so....I must refrain from commenting on this subject. Just think of something that I might say and enjoy the laugh.

Thank you very much. I'd be delighted to post more. Chuck is 8 this year (a true senior). Here's a small pic of him when he was 2 and just in "pasture shape". and here's one of him last year right after we pulled him off the trailer when we first got him.

I'll post a pic of my special boy Frank anywhere I can. "Martin's Best Dressed Sinatra" will be in Classic Pleasure Driving. We're also taking a mare "Wallstreet the Admiral Lambee Pie" and a colt "Martins Mardi Gras Eligent Man" and a couple of babies too.

Well, I guess if I you insist, I will brag a little. Our main 2 this year are: Wallstreet the Admiral Lambee Pie (Please, just call her Addy.) She's been Grand or Reserve under every judge that's ever seen her, but one. and B&L's Rock "E" Good Man Charlie. Chuck's 3 full brothers are all...

I have to agree with several of the others: Sharrway has always taken excellent care of our horses. I'd recommend them any time.

Well, my choice is "Loreal Paris- Colour Juice Stick- Cherry Freeze" ...obviously.

You certainly know the way to a man's heart. Hey, if you're going over there...please find out for me if he is going. I would love to see my special boy one more time before Congress.

I haven't decided yet if I want to go or not.

Very interesting. Now, an idea that I had, as someone who runs on a treadmill a lot: Why not create a treadmill that charges batteries that can run an electric vehicle? If one did that for a horse treadmill, then the horse wouldn't even need to be in the vehicle when it was running. There...

I just wanted to quote this in hopes that my wife will have another chance to read it.

You know, Bonnie...this lady is going to have a great story to tell people after this...if she remembers it all. She's just lucky to have you there to help her.

Yup, tomorrow is ranchwide hoof trimming and worming day. Gotta get ready for the Ada show next weekend too.

Thanks for that info Muffy. Holy Miniature Road Apples! I just looked at the Calendar. It's almost here. This year is flying by. I can't wait for Congress.

A’ight Kiddo, I’ll entertain you, but you might not like me afterwards. How old are you? You said “teen” but that doesn’t get very specific. There is a such thing as “baby fat” that some people don’t lose until their mid 20’s. Most people replace this with more substantial fat by then anyway...

Most impressive. You'll have to tell us how you pull it off. Our son is about to end up being forced to show.

I don't really have any ideas to add, but wanted to Thank You for your efforts. It's a good cause.

When I’m showing against a Pro-Am like Erica and she comes trotting in the ring with her assets bouncing all over the place, I’ve got to try and compete however I can. Of course I have. The problem is that I’m just not pretty enough. I winked and blew a kiss to Portia Sue once and she just...
