@TomE I don't think I could part with a foal if we had one :-) 
A foal is just like a puppy, it makes me want to hug it and stroke it over the soft fur all day long. 

Maybe a small post in this part of the forum with some pictures at the end of May?  (pleeeeease)

@tsunkasapa I had to look it up to see what Iditarod is. A sleigh dog race would be so cool to see. Alaska is pretty high up on my list of places that I'd like to visit.

 

@chuck123wapati :lol: I haven't been in Oakland, so It could be that they have hid the ocean pretty well over there. Normally it is a lot easier to find the sea outside of cities, being a country boy - big city traffic sort of scares me. I feel most comfortable in places where I can make a U turn if I need to or a three point turn if the road is narrow. And I find it a lot more comfortable to ask for directions out on the countryside compared to in a city.  

 

 

lol I am a country boy too  i was terrified driving a 1969 mercury cougar i could hardly keep up with traffic lol when interstate 80 turned into 5 lanes all going well over 90 mph. and nothing but buildings as far as the eye could see.

Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms.

@TomE What a cutie!!

If we had a colt like that I would probably not get anything done during the day - save for watching him and feeling his soft muzzle all the time. Foals are just so adorable with that little fluffy tail and those long legs. 

Is the mare one of your Caspian horses?

Anything more than 3 lanes is scary I think. And especially if it is near a city where there are exits and merges everywhere.

He is a warmblood bred for dressage.  He's a bit of a spitfire at this stage of his life.  The Caspian horses are less than 13 hands and bred as children's hunter ponies.  The remainder of this year's foals will be warmbloods bred for jumping.

Here are a few shots from our musher taking my wife for a ride. She made all the harnesses for the dogs...27 of them.

@tsunkasapa Sorry for the late reply, but I have just returned to the ship again, and I didn't find time to visit the net while at home :-)

That is incredible to make 27 sets of harnesses!  But I bet it is even more incredible to be pulled by a team of dogs.
