The effort to preserve Colonial Spanish horses got a little boost today when Vickie Ives of Karma Farms in Texas started a blog that will surely bring some exciting pictures, solid history, and first rate writing to the internet.
I met Vickie several years ago when she and Tom and Doug Norush came in to inspect the wild herds of Shackleford and Corolla. One can find the report that Vickie wrote on the inspection both on the HOA web site and the Corolla Wild Horse Fund web site. That report is the first thing that anyone who wants to understand the unique conformation of Colonial Spanish Horses should read.
That tour lead to Karma Farms joining us in spear heading the off site breeding program designed to help prevent the extinction of this line of extraordinary Spanish mustangs. The picture above is of Adam, a formally wild Corolla on the day after he got to Karma Farms.
The blog is called "Karma Communications". Expect big things to come of it.
Steve, I can't thank you enough for helping us get our new blog off the ground. If only ALL CS Horse folks could work together to promote and protect our American heritage horses! I look forward to reading your blog each time I see it in my Inbox. Again, thanks for all you do.

ReplyDeleteI am very much looking forward to what the various people associated with Karma Farms have to write and the photos of their lovely horses. CWH The Sea King looked good in their first blog entry.
