This
Month's Laugh Let’s start it off right with a video that made me laugh out loud. Although it is labeled for the beginning and end of the work week, it would work equally well applied to almost anything (start and end of a horse show, children’s competition, in-law visit) Remember, if you have a funny, G-rated video clip that you think we should add, let us know! This Month's Laugh II What is October without HALLOWEEN? Here is something to waste your time in a mindless What’s New Speaking of the end of October, remember the Virginia Equine Extravaganza in Richmond the weekend of October 27-29. I’ll be in the Old Dominion building in booth 2210 with all the portraits and Steve, with his ever popular paintings will be in the Richmond building, booth 205. Both of us will be demonstrating. There will be a lot of popular clinicians there including John Lyons and Lynn Palm. |

 Old Barns at the Warrenton Horse Show |
This newsletter will come out too late to let everyone know that Steve
is featured at “All the King’s Horses” gallery in Leesburg, VA October
14 with his paintings. But, hey, why not announce it? November will find us in Raleigh NC again for the Triangle Farms "c" Show, the Duke Show and the UNC Show. Here is our schedule |

| I have added a mini gelding to our menagerie.
“Stormy” is one of the little ones and his job will be to
show Shadow, our black mini filly, that there are things that horses do
and things that they do not do. Pastured with her blind mother and two
drawf Nigerian goats, Shadow interacts as a goat. No joke. Tries to
climb the fences to greet us. If she could climb the ramp to the
goats playhouse, she would. They run up there to escape her when
she becomes playful. If you remember, her dam is blind and simply does
not cavort around the pasture like a “normal” horse. Time
will tell if I have solved the problem or doubled it! |

Speaking of horses, my wonderful Haflinger gelding, Alf, came home from
the NCSF with a third, a second and a first place in his classes. I
have him over at Seaborne Farm
outside of Creedmoor, NC where I first sent him in June to get the
weight off. We called it “fat camp.” If you are familiar with the good
natured Haflinger you will also know that that they gain weight off of
air. Pretty amazing
