            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
