you have to be a very certain friends list to get a video like that from me Dub.

Actually no vid/pics from my visit. Too busy chatting, but Summer Bird is a fine looking boy. However I was more then impressed with Bellamy Road.

Yeah I like the look of Summer Bird, seen the video on Bloodhorse when he arrived at the farm, what a stunner - him not you! :lol:

Looking forward to your pics/videos! One of our mares, Brenda's Slew, was bred to Summer Bird this past weekend.

PM is SUCH a beautiful farm! And yes, BR is really nice if not HUGE! I like the layout of the barn and the paddocks.

SB is really nice looking to, so is Artie. I did not see US Ranger since he was shuttling.

Saw BR a couple years ago. Awesome. Would need to have the right mare type to go with him tho.

It is so marvelous to be young and have the freedom to explore the world of the TB and still have a little cash to own a nice camera. I'm jealous. I think I'm going to breakdown and put my old Polaroid on Ebay.

Shamwow - what is a polaroid? j/k :) I bitch and complain but it is a pretty good job most often. I went to go see stallions for different clients a few times this winter and got vids/pics for a few farms but failed at Pauls Mill. I was with another friend and got distracted talking, but most often I play off I'm just a tourist in town as I still have NY plates on my car and no one suspects I'm breaking apart there horse piece by piece.

Ron- Wasn't as impressed with Ranger as Summer Bird and Bell Road but truthfully I only saw him in his stall, so not the whole package.

Crystal: You still drive around KY with your NY plates on your vehicle? You better be careful, everyone will think you are Nick Zito's wife.
