Thistle Cove Farm Member Registered: 01/01/04 Posts: 678 Loc: Tazewell County, VA, USA	Thanks Rick/June, Songbird, Chatty, Mountain Ash...the gift of encouragement is rare but personified in you women. May God bless you ten times over. The rabbit is a Giant German Angora and Leslie raises them. I raise sheep and hypo-allergenic American Curly horses. We've had a tremendous reponse from women all over the world and are starting out with high hopes and expectations. We've got the first 2 years worth of bi-monthly issues planned except...I keep finding so many really interesting women, I keep changing the docket. Thanks again for your gifts of kind and encouraging words.
