    NM Pet Talk Meeting

    Who? YOU!
    Where? Albuquerque, NM
    When? October (see below)

    Hi all! Here's an invite to visit us SouthWesterners!

    The National Arabian Horse Show begins Oct. 17th and runs through Oct. 25. That leaves two weekends: the 17th/18th/19th or the 24th/25th/26th. I *HIGHLY* suggest the weekend of the 24th/25th/26th. The culmination of the even is on the night of the 25th and I *STRONGLY* recommend attending this. (The opening ceremony with the American/Canadian national anthem is completely breathtaking!! Two yrs ago they also did a special tribute to 9-11. AWESOME!)

    I know not everyone is a horse nut but there are other things as well... Zoo, Aquarium, last year there was a cat show held on the same grounds as the horse show... and babolaypo65 is scoutin' out 'doggie' ideas as well as other interests.

    Anyone interested?!

    If I drive, I'm more than willing to pick up anyone from the airport and/or carpool!

    As an Albuquerquean (what an odd word) I'll certainly be there!!!!! Looking forward to it zip! thanks for getting this started.

    I might not make it to many of the horse events, silly job gets in the way, but a pet talk event I'll skip work for!

    I know it well. I was born and raised in Santa fe....I've lived away from NM a few times, and the feeling never leaves you. My mom used to tell me that when I was growing up, but I didn't believe her.

    You are sooo right...I loved my years there.....
    spent lots of time at The Bull Ring,...The Pink Adobe,and so many other Great places...Oar House....
    I'm glad that you know our farm....we built it from the ground up..
    I actually lived in a motor home on the land as it was going up...while we were renovating the main house and the caretakers' cottage....
    all while trying to qualify for the 84 games in L.A......what great years' they were!!!!
    it was such a beautiful place...great indoor ring.....
    i should dig up some old pics.....

    Now that I've gone down memory lane.......

    Tonya,

    I can't guarantee I'll make it but I'll try my darndest. The early notice helps and I'll be sure to keep my schedule cleared. I'm about 80% sure I'll be there.

    Not sure if I'll drive or fly. It'd be 14 hours driving according to Map Quest. I'm not so sure I could do that drive alone. Heeey micki, Par, and other Texans... any of you going and wanna carpool maybe?

    Austin is about 4-5 hours from here and then it's another 5 to Albq. I'm not sure that's the shortest route but it shaves a few hours off of mapquest's approximation. If you want to drive down this way, we could carpool.

    How far is Midland from you? I forgot that I'll be over there for school...
