Hi: What a nice little set-up! As for the new barn, my best suggestion would be to visit various websites of barn builders. There are a lot of new materials today that weren't avialable in the past. I'm thinking of that decking material that is part wood and PVC and that is guarranteed for...

Hi: We'd be happy to be listed. http://www.stepnstone.com . Thanks -- great idea, too! Ta, Shirlee

What a darling little charmer! Congratulations. Ta, Shirlee

Hi: I could be wrong on this, and it wouldn't be the first time, believe me, but it was my understanding, on the mingled points/wins, that you could request that they all be folded over into one division, provided they were won before the changes. Ta, Shirlee

Hi: Yes, at Convention last year, it was passed that the points from the various divisions are no longer lumped together. I know it caused a lot of consternation amongst the Foundation people, because some shows only offered Classic classes and sometimes a Foundation animal went oversized...

Congratulations! She's a pretty a girl. And Bruce is so nice. We bought Brush Creek's Nightshade from him years ago. Probably close to the same breeding as your girl. We really like Nightshade, but haven't been able to use him very much, because until lately there wasn't much call for...

Hi all: I relie heavily on Uzzle's book, Our Shetland Heritage. It is invaluable, especially when arguing :-) what is a Classic. Lewella will have more about Scott and family, but I believe they are still in the business, I think their name is Red Roof or Red Barn or Red something Shetlands...

Shari: Could you send me your private email address? Mine is [email protected]. Thanks. Shirlee

Hi: I'm no help at all -- I think he's just gorgeous! Buy 'em all! Ta, Shirlee

Hi: We haven't participated in the Sweepstakes...yet, but the notion of it being for yearlings (only) makes a lot more sense to me than weanlings (only) for many reasons. We'd probably offer a couple of stallions if it was for yearlings simply because the way we are set up early foals and...

Hi: The numbers might have been down because of that icky virus that is going around (see Belinda's Rumor Mill etc). I know one farm from CA pulled their animals because of it. Others from other parts of the country might have too. Thanks for the pix. Congrats on your wins. Ta, shirlee

Hi All: Something else to muddy the waters. A lot depends on which section of the country you're showing in. Go look at the OR Gold website and look at the lovely mare that was the Supreme Champion at the 2006 Show. She was shown Classic and won everything as a Classic, going on to be...

Hi: Don't panic until he goes over. Most of our stock reach their full height at 2 years of age. We have several that at 2 were 44 1/2 and when full grown they were still the same size. You might luck out and he'll start to fill out and not continue up. Good luck. Shirlee

Oh Wow! What a striking boy. Congrats. And do be careful...Shetlands are indeed just like potato chips -- you can't have just one. They're worse than Jello and you know the old saying, "there's alway room for...one more Shetland!" heh heh. Good luck at Congress. Ta, Shirlee

Hi All: This is sort of skewing the topic a bit, but... What do you guys think of pressuring the National Office to create an Ancestor Page on the National website? Seems to me that it would be a boon to everyone. That way there would be one place to go look. Bellevue has the best ancestry...

Oh, wow! What a gorgeous filly! You should be rightfully proud. Congrats. Ta, Shirlee

Hi: I think Leeann's (spelled right?) post is pretty much on the mark. We had a couple of stallions that were shown MP by Jim Curry. There were no fake tails, but the trademark braids of the M's were used and are required. MP don't have to be shod and they should not have the extreme action...

Hi Marty: Because I'm an internet dummy I can't send you a picture, but you can see two of our Modern Pleasure stallions on our website www.stepnstone.com. There is a picture of Double Stuf and Brush Creek's Nightshade on our Stallion Pages and if you think you can download them from our site...

Good Morning! And congratulations. What a darling little girl! And her mom ain't bad either. Ta, Shirlee

Hi: Have you tried Ozark Mountain Miniatures? They have a lot of pony stuff and they're really easy to work with and happy to answer questions. Plus there's Star Lake Tack, also, although I don't know much about them. Good luck. Ta, Shirlee
