Thanks, you're too kind :~)

Speaking of talent with the camera, Duchess just one two gift certificates from Horse.com for her ad-pictures. They wanted pictures they could use on the website, using Horse.com products :~)

You may have a point there about the static. Lord knows I blow the ends out of my fingers every time I touch something these days, and my poor cats get zapped every time I pet them. You can just feel the crackling in their coats when you run your hand over them. That can't be comfortable. I've been tempted to rub them with a dryer sheet, but a good coating of dust seems to help the problem too. I've noticed that the static is considerably less after the cats have taken a dust bath. I'm sure that vaccuming the horse makes him look better but he'd probably feel better if he was still dusty.

I've got to try to take some with product in them. I looked and don't have any. Lots of horse blankets, but ours look too old. Should have taken a good one of Cyn's new blanket before she got it all dirty.

I think we've covered this before, but my ex-brother-in-law is a taxidermist and used to live in the Redmond Area ... It's just one of those names that jumped out at me when I saw it.

Sounds like Bordello :) I guess there is some similarity to kennel cough and what you might pick up in a bordello.

There is much more going on here than weather. There are some principles involved too. I just wrote a tirate of how p/o I am. Stretchhhh. Ok, I feel better now. Too bad I have to edit. Yall would probably have enjoyed it:')

Yeah I do have blankets and will use them if it gets too low. IMO The cold doesn't make them sick though. I think it is the heat that follows. They get snotty sometimes. My horses seem to have been bumped to the "who cares, their owner is a nobody" and this "nobody"I'm moving them up the list where they belong.

Just my 2 cents. Leave it off. Things are good. You don't know the problem but you seemed to have fixed it. I really think you have a short.

How about giving Country Supply the picture you took of Bay & Pony in their blankets in the snowstorm?

Looks like we might get a whiff of it here before it's gone.

Oh boy - are you set up for that if it hits. I've been reading about 3" of ice in places, that sounds like a lot of trees and power lines down.

:) At 2:00pm today when I headed home from work because of the snow and ice, it was 16 degrees. I really hate winter.

Our winters aren't normally this bad. At least the days are getting longer and I only have five more months of this. By mid-May it should be nice (I hope)
