Congratulations
to "Charlie" and Madison, of Virginia! Wietse was transported by
Bob Hardy, Crossroads Transport and he arrived in excellent condition. Update
from "Charlie" Sept 30, 2008: Hi
Sue, Just
wanted to say congradulations on Hindrik, I saw him in Leesburg, Va, wow
what a beauty! Some ladies behind me were talking about him being
from Oregon and I had the great pleasure of telling them why and who Hindrik
was. Of course, I told them if they were interested in purchasing a Friesian
they could contact you. I didn't get a chance to meet Ron but I hope to
one of these days. I'm heading to Iron Springs Farm Tuesday and I don't
know why, because I have the most beautiful horse in the world right here
(Wietse!)! I,
also, ran into Bruce Griffin and introduced myself as the owner of Wietse
and he was delighted for me and couldn't say enough nice things about Wietse.
Bruce than introduced me to another guy (forgot his name) but he was the
one that hauled Wietse from Michigan to his place in Ohio and than to Virginia.
Boy, Wietse has made a pile of friends all along the way. Wietse and I
may have to do Wietse Christmas cards! Lots
of luck in Florida,
"Charlie"

Hi
Sue, ...re:
Wietse, by the way, he continues to do wonderful.... He
really likes kids, he follows my granddaughter all over the place. Looks
rather odd, a great big horse and a little kid walking around the pasture.
Hope
all is welll at your place, "Charlie"

Update
from "Charlie" after she got him
Wietse
is doing great and adjusting to our routines. He seems to be taking a shine
to me, I wondered if I remind him of someone? My Lord, he is big
but oh so lovable! Please
convey to Bob Hardy if he needs a place to rest horses and himself, he
is welcomed here. Thanks again and I hope you got my last email. Charlie
