I'll try to unearth it later today (it's on a floppy) and post it. Sorry about the delay, but I simply have got to finish a couple of things for the office first. Other than that compilation..., I'm better with specific questions. Having grown up in Vienna, there's a fair amount one tends to know on the subject, without really being aware of knowing it.

Thanks so much for the photos - it was nice to get something like that in the mail (a friend went and picked my mail up for me at the P.O. box since I've been too sick to get outta bed much) and it really made my day. Did you make your own costumes? It looked like you guys were all having a great time; I could just see the grin on X's face. ;) --- Maximus/2 3.01 * Origin: The Union Jack BBS, Phoenix, AZ, USA. 602-274-9921 (1:114/260) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 243 HORSES Ref: E3L00015 Date: 03/16/97 From: VICKI NICHOLS Time: 04:13pm \/To: ANGELA PATTEN (Read 1 times) Subj: Re: Lipizzans Have you seen Walt Disney's MIRACLE OF THE WHITE STALLIONS? It's for sale now, and probably you can rent it. There are scads of books available on the breed; in Phoenix, there are a couple of breeders, too. Marguerite Henry wrote a terrific book (kinda fiction, kinda not) about the breed but the name escapes me. I have the book in storage or I'd dig it up for ya. --- Maximus/2 3.01 * Origin: The Union Jack BBS, Phoenix, AZ, USA. 602-274-9921 (1:114/260) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 243 HORSES Ref: E3L00016 Date: 03/16/97 From: VICKI NICHOLS Time: 04:17pm \/To: BOB KOHL (Read 1 times) Subj: Re: a reminder? > Folks.. a basic reminder since I'm sure everyone has priorities > right now.. > > > But if the traffic in any given echo falls below a certain > point.. it gets kicked off the backbone.. ;) Uh - sorry, I have had hardware and health problems - hope I am back for awhile! --- Maximus/2 3.01 * Origin: The Union Jack BBS, Phoenix, AZ, USA. 602-274-9921 (1:114/260) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 243 HORSES Ref: E3L00017 Date: 03/16/97 From: VICKI NICHOLS Time: 04:18pm \/To: BOB SEABORN (Read 1 times) Subj: Appies BS> A Welsh/Appaloosa leopard mare, pregnant by a purebred BS> quarterhorse, and a filly (from the same stud) who was BS> born last August. My first horse was a Welsh/Appaloosa mix, a blood-red sorrel with flaxen mane and tail, with snowflake spots on his hips. I was wondering, is your mare registered POA or NAPI? Not sure if either takes hardship registrations if you have no papers - at least with a mare, hardshipping in a registration is expensive. The Appaloosa pony is very popular around here; the size is great for most anything. I have trophies and a trophy buckle from barrel racing mine; we also drove him (2 wheel buggy) and my best friend jumped him. He was a terrific first horse for a teenager. I had boxes of ribbons and trophies from him; BTW, he was NOT istered. --- Maximus/2 3.01 * Origin: The Union Jack BBS, Phoenix, AZ, USA. 602-274-9921 (1:114/260) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 243 HORSES Ref: E3L00018 Date: 03/16/97 From: VICKI NICHOLS Time: 04:23pm \/To: JEAN PROPHET (Read 1 times) Subj: Austria > i named her =] boy she sounds tall.. out of curriosity > have you seen any > Lipizzans in real life just out of thought??? well i JP> No, unfortunately I've never seen them "in person".

Hey, I have GOT to talk to your daughter, Jean - I extracted a promise from my best friend that she will accompany me to Austria to see them in a year or two. I want to first track down any relatives I still have there if I can, then find out ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING I can about going to see the Lipizzaners in person. I just wish Mrs. Braswell was 20 years younger, I would take her with me. That is the one thing in the world that I have ALWAYS wanted to see. Hawaii and Paris just don't interest me like the dancing white horses... --- Maximus/2 3.01 * Origin: The Union Jack BBS, Phoenix, AZ, USA. 602-274-9921 (1:114/260)
