Hey Kay and All Congress Exhibitors,

Looking forward to seeing everyone again this year. Jim has cooked 13 briskets and around 15 racks of ribs for this year's luncheon. Wanted to be sure we had plenty of good o'l Texas BBQ for all! If you are planning on coming and don't know what to bring, right now we need bread, hot dog buns, hamburger buns, any kind of cookies, can drinks, crackers ( to go with that Wisconsin cheese) jello salads (we are renting two refrigerators again if you need something kept cold) even watermelons and cantalopes or any kind of fresh fruit.

This might be the last year that Sharron and I will be hosting this annual event due to the fact that the show will be in St. Louis next year and we don't know if the facility will allow us to continue this tradition but we will check into it.

We will be bringing 8 ponies to show and will have two geldings there for sale if anyone is looking for something to add to their show string or play with. Both of these geldings are Futurity nominated and one has almost completed his grand championships ( as a yearling) for his Hall of Fame. If you would like to see those two you can visit our website:

and look for Fiddlestix Black Hawk and Fiddlestix Silver Sioux.

Stop by Fiddlestix & Sharrway Farms and say hello.

Sincerely,

Hi Kay -- what are the dates for the Congress? Haven't been paying much attention (duh) but would like to come down and watch some of the classes and meet your new little gal.

 

[Lewella]

Congress is August 3-6 (Wed to Sat).

And Star can't wait to meet Kaykay and Cassie can't wait to meet Lyn (though Cassie will have to wait a while to meet Lyn since she's going to go visit Uno first

)

[SIZE=14pt]Kay I soooooo wish I was coming it isnt the room that is the problem is is the travel expenses..... I had no puppies or horses to sell this spring and I have to get to nationals so im pinching every penny. Lewella, I will be busting till Cassie gets here but she really needs to party first, that is another board expense too for me and travel for her back from Congress is about 250 dollars so I really couldnt afford to go this year. I am hoping with 5 foals due, not counting hers, I can keep one and sell four and have money to show more next year. Anyone interested in either a Steel ASPC or AMHR baby, A Double reg aspc amhr baby out of Image and Chad , an amhr baby out of Carbon copy and Sweet N Sour or a for sure pinto out of fancy and Blue?????? Taking reservations![/SIZE]
