I might try the meet in Norco - never been there. How long did it take those driving from North County? Also, have heard there are lots of horsey shops there......might combine both that day.

Lolli is beautiful! What is a "project orp"?
I have a little guy - black and buff orp mix. Here he is at 6 weeks old. I assume he is a roo based on the comb?
