Hi Fredericka,
Here are a few pictures of Mary riding Balthasar tonight. I like
the one of Balthasar saying hello to Odessa.
We are all ready for the cool Fall days!

Hello
Fredericka,
Balthasar Odessa and Caspian are all doing very well! Balthasar
is getting in shape for Spring and actively ridden 3 times a week
and soon we will be pulling out the cart to drive! Odessa will
continue her saddle /schooling shortly. Maria will start Caspian
this spring/summer under saddle already and is very excited!!
I'm not sure if you remember Kevin, the "little boy" who showed
Odessa as a yearling. Well, he came to visit Odessa last November
(he now lives in Iowa) and oh my!!! How tall and HANDSOME he is.
Always knew he was a beautiful boy. Inside and out. What a great
young man. Sadly his horse died last year and his mom said he has
backed away from them. I don't doubt one day he will get back in
the saddle. He is a natural equestrian.
Think Spring!
Love
Carole Watts

Mary trotted on Balthasar today for the first
time YEAH MARY!!! It is terribly hot here. 94 degrees with
100% humidity so we kept the riding short. We then had some water
fun!

I believe everyone should have access to these
beautiful creatures!! Fredericka, when I was growing up, our
neighbor was a very kind women who allowed me as a 6 year old girl
until my early teens to live in her barn from sun up to sun
down. She treated me like her own daughter. I will never forget her
kindness and always said that should I someday have horses, I would
freely open my barn to all children. And adults. So many people
love horses but do not have access to them or the financial means
for lessons. So I get great satisfaction seeing people faces around
horses, especially when they meet Balthasar and Odessa. These girls
and their parents had such fun learning to groom horses tonight.
How I truly admire Flying W Farms in breeding such high quality,
intelligent, KIND, willing horses. They do stand out!

Mary had a friend over today for a
playdate. They have been outside for hourse with Balthasar and Odessa
intently watching them play. Mary's little friend never saw a
horse before let alone up close. I thought this was a cute pic. Of
course I have some of her "ducking" as Balth lowered his head over
fence to get better look at her. SO CUTE!!!

Isn't he just gorgeous!!!!!!! EVERYONE
just adores him and make such a fuss. How proud I am ;-) I think
Odessa will be stopping people in their tracks too. She is adorable.
Fredericka, I can't thank you enough for your attention to such high
quality breeding standards. Give Robin a hug for me too. Carole |

Hi
guys,
Anyone else get lots of snow??!! We have 8" and spent all day out
playing (and shoveling). Horses had such a blast! This was Odessa's
first real snow and she didn't want to come in this evening. Balth
just wanted to run and run. He really loves this weather. Isn't his
face shot cute? Oh, I was able to spend some time doing nice grooming
job and noticed Balth was taller. So I grabbed my measure stick with
the bubble in level. He is officially 17.1 hands! You were right
Fredericka!!!! And he gets MORE handsome every day. I should have
measured Odessa. Im guessing 12.2 hands for her. She is really
growing!!! Carole |
