Hi All -

As you have probably figured out, there is a problem with the water system. 
Water has been flowing from the top of lot 15 for several days, and water
pressure throughout the Stables has been low. Parks investigated today, and it
appears that the problem does not lie within the stable area, and further
investigation is needed. The water has been TURNED OFF. Parks will try to turn
on the water FOR AN HOUR tomorrow morning (8-9 AM) to allow us to fill our
tanks. Then they need to turn it back off to continue searching for the problem.
If it looks like it is a long term issue, they will arrange for a water truck to
come out daily.

Stay tuned for more information!

Parks phone # is 662-8159

Happy Winter!

Lisa

Hi,

So far, in only the past 3 months we have earned $607.50.  All we had
to do was write checks and shop at Smith's. Keep it up!

*Painted horses are mane attraction for anatomy students*
>>

>>
>>     With 205 bones and 700 muscles the horse is a challenging animal
>>     for anatomy students to study.
>>
>>     That was until champion rider Gillian Higgins came up with the
>>     novel idea of showing people how it all works.
>>
>>     Rather than bog them down with dusty diagrams and skeletal
>>     sketches, she hit upon the idea of painting the inner workings of
>>     the horse on the beast itself.
>>
>>     []
>>
>>     Gillian Higgins shows-off her anatomical study on thirteen-year-
>>     old Kiitos ahead of a lecture on equine anatomy
>>
>>     Now veterinary students, race horse trainers, eventers, pony club
>>     members and dressage judges are flocking to her lectures to see
>>     the horse painting in action.
>>
>>     Ms Higgins uses water-based hypoallergenic paints which are easy
>>     to wash off afterwards.  She takes four hours to apply the equine
>>     make-up - painting the skeletal structure on one side and the
>>     multi-coloured musculature on the other.
>>
>>
>>             *More...*
>>
>>
>>
>>     'Painting the skeleton and musculature on the side of the horse
>>     really helps to bring the subject to life,' she says.
>>
>>     'You can discover how to get the best out of your horse by seeing
>>     exactly what happens as it moves.'
>>
>>     []
>>
>>     The champion rider Gillian Higgins paints the flexor muscle chain
>>     on one side of the horse
>>
>>     Gillian, 27, a sports remedial therapist, from Nottingham, first
>>     hit on the idea three years ago after completing a degree in
>>     equine business management at the Royal Agricultural College in
>>     Cirencester, Gloucestershire.
>>
>>     She said: 'I realized that many riders and trainers could benefit
>>     from a better understanding of how the horse works. With all
>>     those bones and muscles with incredibly long names, it can be a
>>     bit much to take it all in.
>>
>>     'I'm trying to show the anatomy and how the horse works in an
>>     interesting and easy to understand way.
>>
>>     'I started gradually with a bit of paint but then became more and
>>     more in demand. Now I go all over the country from Cornwall to
>>     Inverness and I'm soon flying off to South Africa to give a
>>     demonstration there.'
>>
>>     []
>>
>>     A horse has 205 bones and 700 muscles. Painting a steed helps
>>     students remember which one is where
>>
>>     Normally her models are her 12 year old eventer Freddie Fox or
>>     six year old Henry - although if she travels further afield from
>>     home she relies on schools and colleges to provide a steed for
>>     her. Greys are best because the colours show up more clearly.
>>
>>     Gillian, who won a gold medal at the student riders nations cup
>>     in 2006, said: 'Freddie Fox is the best model because he has just
>>     the right temperament and loves to be the centre of attention at
>>     the demonstrations. Being painted isn't much different for them
>>     as being groomed or handled. They don't mind at all.
>>
>>     'The worst thing that has ever happened was when a horse that had
>>     not minded being painted in the slightest, then had to go into an
>>     arena in front of 150 people. He got a bit spooked up by the
>>     crowd and was jumping around and became a little bit too much.'

Thanks Nancy and Laura for your kind words.  Thanks especially to Lisa,
who was my rock-for-the-day on Monday. She had her own tears, but was much
braver at all the details than I was.

We retired Rosie after St Johns camp last summer and she had a couple of
good months as a lady of leisure, eating ungodly quantities of Senior feed
and beet pulp and horse candy, rolling in any available mud (making do
with dust when mud was unavailable) and making nasty-face at Rocco (but of
course whinnying anytime he was out of sight).  But, progressive arthritis
and laminitis took its toll. Our goal was to keep her pain free, but over
the past two months she really had a difficult time. With Dr Nolan's help,
we were able to keep her comfortable until the past few weeks and it was
finally clear to me that her pain was constant and considerable and,
ultimately, unmanageable. I so miss her throaty calls for food when I
arrive at the barn each morning and evening. She was quite a talker. We
were so lucky and privileged to have been able to keep Rosie for the past
few years- just one in a string of lucky families over her long life. She
was a wonderful pony who took excellent care of Eli, giving her the
confidence she needed and a very good Pony Club experience. We will all
remember her faithful execution of every task asked of her, from picking
up the correct lead, to jumping whatever she was pointed towards, to
opening (and closing) gates without help. Eli loved her, I loved her- I
think we all loved Rosie. She will be deeply missed.

If you'd like to see a lovely hunt parade, handsome hounds and beautifully
turned out and clipped horses, check out this video of the Middleburg Hunt going
through the village Middleburg, Va. Lots of Pony Clubbers there, despite the
snow!

Our thoughts are with Eliana and Claudia - The super Rosie pony passed away on Monday -
She was a special pony club mount for so many kids and has taught lots and lots of wonderful lessons. She was truly a once in a lifetime horse and will always be kept dear to our hearts.
