Subject: ABOUT NABORR.COM AND DISPERSAL SALE OF *NABORR ARABIANS

I apologize to everyone who utilizes the *Naborr website and this message board for my lack of updates during the past couple of years.

On February 21, 2002, I lost my beloved *Naborr son MADRYBORR, exactly one week before his 24th birthday. The tears are running down my face as I type this. You would think that I would have recovered by now, but I really haven't. Madz was my soul mate for 19 years, and nothing in my life or on my farm has been the same since he left.

I could not bear to look at this website, to try to update it, or even to read the message board. Lots of folks sent me e-mails related to their *Naborr-bred horses, and most of the time I did not reply for the same reasons. I just couldn't. I'm sorry.

I have owned and bred Arabian horses since 1978--that's 26 years now. I was an enthusiastic participant in everything Arabian for so many years. I used to go to all the shows including the Nationals and Scottsdale many times, traveled the country to go to horse auctions and visit Arabian farms everywhere, and I thought it would go on forever.

But everything changed when I lost Madryborr. In the past couple years I have lost some of my favorite horses and donkeys (I breed donkeys, too), and many were getting old, some I had since the very beginning. The past two winters here in Maine have been brutally cold--some days the high temperature was 17 below zero with strong winds.

So, I have made a sad and difficult decision. With the exception of a few favorite horses including my 27-year-old *Naborr daughter, I am going to sell most of my Arabians.

I have one Khemosabi daughter in her early 20's, and everyone else is *Naborr related, some granddaughters and grandsons, most double or even triple *Naborr. A few are young, but most are in their teens and early 20's but still breedable. They are in pasture condition and I want to sell them in buddy-groups if possible. Good homes not too far from Maine are important, since some have only trailered once or not at all. Two stallions and 6 or 7 mares, all beautiful and very well bred, reasonably priced.

If anyone is interested, please e-mail me directly for further information.
