There is Del Mar, then there is the Polo Grounds, the show in Palm Springs has the room, there is the Riverside Fair Grounds, the Pomona fair grounds, and that doesn't even consider some of the many horse arenas around. Some of the all-breed venues out here would be great for our nationals. I didn't like Del Mar, with all the early fog and distance for performance events. But maybe that is just me. I know the dinners were great and the beaches fabulous.............but.......I couldn't get to the performance events and the conformation times without a speeding ticket. Tish......can I submit that ticket to the board for payment?....LOL Ileana ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2005.
