Maybe some from Ridecamp should get together and car pool/horse van-big-
and check things out.  When will the actual date be firm?  Anyone know?  We
could get small group with stock trailors and with extra drivers drive on
thru. I am told Fl is about 8 to 10 hrs drive from Houston, Tx.  Personally
have't been, just what I have heard.  Any takers???  Mary Ann, Tx (north of
Houston by 120 miles)

For those that live near Oxford, Florida I have read there is a auction of
over 100 
arabs taking place there on August 3rd. It is a court ordered auction being
carried out 
by the local sheriff. The location is 13389 N W 11th Drive.  You could
probably call the 
local sheriff for more info or there is a lady that lives nearby that has
informed me of 
the auction. Her e mail is emotia@aol.com.  
   I have seen the court order and a list of the arabs. They range in age
from foals to 
20 yr.s, a pretty well graded distribution.  Mostly mares and some
stallions. Most are 
by Wielki Raz, Seattle Sam, Ekho, Polak, Magnat,  and I see Fortel, Banzaj,
Birch Hill 
Gazal, Alcomej, Kolicja listed as the dam's sire. 
  Possibly some prospects if you live close enough.  I hear the auction is
going to 
happen but you should check before you go as sometimes injunctions stop
these things.
