Iowa Horse Fair Preparations

Work on the Iowa Horse Fair carriage driving exhibition and booth progresses, with some exciting developments.

Bob Nervig and I are working on the body awareness presentation and are both very excited about it. Bob will be driving Don Pecos demonstrating how the whip's performance effects the horse's performance. Don Pecos is really starting to understand the Big Picture and his attitude towards this is darling. Bless him.

The collection of rare and out of print books is coming along nicely. The fascinating thing about these books is the difference in the quality of the printing. You can order these books online, but it really is a crap shoot as to what you end up with when the post arrives. At the booth, you will be able to compare and contrast and choose between the same book, at different prices, which reflect the quality and rarity.

I am developing a relationship with a local 'haberdashiere' to provide mens and ladies hats, which is also very exciting. In the next week, I'll get together with her to organize what I feel will be a very nice collection of show hats.

My favorite carriage driving filmmaker, Tim Malloy is working with me to provide some of his outstanding DVDs for sale in the booth. Nothing can truly define carriage driving like Tim's films can. We are discussing the logistics of it and anyone who wants to weigh in on their desire to own any of Tim's glorious films would be most welcome. You can view shorts of Tim's films at: http://vimeo.com/5934478

The snow is melting. Spring and the Horse Fair will be here before we know it!
