PA-ing while Waiting For Hurricane Irene

Last post I added 30 new horses to the list. This time it's just one, but he's pretty special:

- LJJ Royal Fire, 2000 chestnut rabicano Arabian stallion (HR Large Amir CM by Sarah Minkiewicz). This gorgeous boy is owned by Laurie Jo Jensen, who has given me permission to PA, show and stand him at stud. I know we focus almost exclusively on Polish/Russian bloodlines in our Arabians, but if you're looking for some wonderful CMK breeding, check out his pedigree.

Old is New (And New is New)

Summertime

I've been very busy with work, so the models have had to take a back seat for a bit. But we have a couple of new faces added to the list:

- For Love, chestnut Hanoverian stallion (Breyer SM G4 Dressage Horse OF)

- Im Dun Datin, red dun tobiano Paint stallion (Breyer Zippo Pine Bar OF)

Im Dun Datin was an anniversary present from my adorable husband - he finally understands that I would rather have a model horse than a piece of jewelry - lol!

I've also been doing some "replacement" breeding - horses that will eventually take their sire or dam's place on my list. A big "thank you" to all of those folks whose models I have used. I'm quite excited that I have been able to include some illustrious names from model horse history - thanks to Laurel Dedes, I now have a descendant of "Poco's Bucketsfull of Trouble" who will join the list in a few years.

Home Again

Home at last - and caught up on the outstanding breedings. Thanks to all for your patience!

I kept waiting for the weather to improve so that I could finish taking pictures of the rest of the Christmas horses, but that didn't seem to be in the cards. I just braved the cold and got a few shots done over the weekend. The camera felt like an ice cube when I brought it back inside! Still a few left to pedigree, but here are a few that finally have their pix and peds:

- Antoni, chestnut Arabian stallion (Breyer PAS LE OF)

- Comeinoutoftherain, dark bay TB mare (Breyer Zenyatta OF)

On The Road

I will be off line for about two and a half weeks starting March 1st. I may have some sporadic internet connection time now and then, but will not be able to fulfill any pedigree assignment requests during that time. Never fear though! I will get to everyone once I get back, so just hold tight. :-)
