That was plenty of information, but not too much. Thank you so much!

Thanks for all the pictures and links.

Thought you might like to see the farm....Lipica, Slovenia.

xoxoxoBruce · 09-26-2006, 08:11 PM

More?

xoxoxoBruce · 09-26-2006, 08:12 PM

OK, just one more.

*sigh* I could look at beautiful horse pics for-ev-er...

Once have been to the "Spanischer Reitschule (Spanish Riding School)" in Vienna where they exclusively use Lippizaner. Wonderful noble horses.

December 3, 2005 I saw the Spanish Riding School Lipizzaners in Atlanta, GA. $300 for two seats, within 3 rows of the arena side and we were seated next to the Celebrity Box. The Celebrity that evening was General Patton's grandson. This tour of the SRS was commemorating the 60th Anniversary of Gen. Patton rescuing the SRS horses during WWII. During intermission, I approached the grandson and spoke with him and he offered to sign my program.
My grandparents were in the Navy during WWII. That is where they met.

That evening was very special to me, and I was very surprised at how much Hubby enjoyed the performances by the horses.

Thanks Jim, I read about the Corolla horses at a horseBB. I'd love to go to Chincoteague and Assateague to see the pony penning, but I don't think I'd enjoy the crowds. I'd also love to see the Abaco Barbs of Aruba...maybe I could talk hubby into vacationing there....(?)
Do I have to answer affirmatively if he asks if there are horses involved?

The two foals in the nearby field are growing up fast....
First the original baby....
