I am setting up an American Driving Society Booth at Nationals again this year. Like last year, I will only be there Fri-Mon and then again back for the second weekend. I would love help at the booth--it helps so much if someone is there to answer questions. Any ADS people going to be there...
I'm going to Congress for the first time, and will be doing the Classic Carriage Driving Class. There are a bunch of really cool Carriage classes in the rulebook that I have never seen offered at a breed show--does anyone ever offer them? I was really hoping they would be at a National level...
Bought our first two miniatures at a dispersal sale outside of Chicago in 1986, a mare and a gelding. Used them with my 4H club for 5 yhears. Started showing after we moved to Ca with that mare's daughter in 1995, then the kids all started showing in 1997. Hard to believe we've been in it so...
Who bought lot #19? I was going to bid on her but didn't get home in time from work. I got through for bidding on Heads Up--I fell head over heels for him Friday night (we went down for the pre sale, and got to walk through the barns) I was able to go in the stall with him and he is a total...

He can get ASPR papers since he has a registered AMHR parent. He would also look fantastic in ADS!! That is a lovely horse! I had one colt go over 40"--mom is 36", dad was 31". Showed to lots of wins as a yearling, got to Nationals and he measured out. Never did get to show AMHR again, but...
I've had 14 foals in 22 years. I do this because I love the minis, and for what they've done for my kids...and the neighbors kids, the 4H kids, and any other kids I've been able to glom onto. I am so far in the red on the mini's I don't want to do the math. I have a fantastic 4 year old...
