The Great Pennant Race

Spent hours last night making enough large pennants to decorate the front of Dinny's stall at the Saanich Fair. Each pennant is about 12" wide by 16" tall. With the addition of carefully cut-out fabric letters in snazzy, contrasting white, said pennants (providing they are hung in the correct order) will spell H-A-F-L-I-N-G-E-R, Dinny's breed. Today, we'll be making the breed information posters that will decorate the front of our tack stall and provide endless minutes of informational pleasure to the thousands of fair visitors stopping by to gaze at the various draft horses in attendance. After speaking with the draft horse convener last night I learned that the draft breeds at the show this year will be: Gypsy Vanners, Shires, Belgians, Clydesdales, a Norwegian Fjord, and our Haflinger. Should be a good show with an interesting mix of heavy, medium, and light draft horses to see!
