Hello all!
Well, the other day I decided to giveaway some horse books via a write-in drawing linked here.
If you wrote in and said you wanted a particular book, I printed your email or comment with the details and put them all in particular hats.
This took way more time than I had anticipated but it was fun!
Just for all of you to know, I have not yet notified the winners so all winners will read their names here first! Fun! Of course, I will notify them all by email tomorrow, so no worries if they are not reading today.
MOST POPULAR BOOK
I was not surprised that the SEABISCUIT book was the most popular… The second most popular was TOLD UNDER A WHITE OAK TREE which is the story told by Fritz, the first stunt horse ever.
The rest of the books were all about equal in requests… with the magazines being the least popular.
HERE WE GO!

Here I sit... cutting up little scraps of paper and putting them in hats on top of the books. Oy, it took forever! First I had to print every request, then find enough equal sized hats and then cut them all up in equal sized strips... My knees were sore! (This is the beginning of the process when I remembered to take a pic.)

The picks! Yup, after I had all the hats full, I put my hand in each hat and swished it around and then just picked. It was totally random so you all should feel equally represented.
WINNERS!
1) SeaBiscuit: The Rest of the Story: SHERIE V
Sherie is from Equi-Spa so you might wonder if I picked her purposefully… but I didn’t. In fact, when I pulled her name, I actually considered putting it back but then I thought that would be even less fair. So, she won, fair and square.
2) Told Under a White Oak Tree: SM STATTNER
3) What Shamu Taught Me about Life, Love and Marriage: PAIGE C.
4) Kicked Bitten and Scratched: DALE AND LISA
5) Little Black, A Pony: KIM SHIFFLETT
6) What the Animals Tell Me: G WATTS
7) Cowboys Magazine:
–KEVIN AND DEE DEE
–DARLENE STEVENSON
8) Horse & Rider Magazine:
–INDI
–KATHY LIPTON
CONGRATULATIONS!! THAT WAS SO MUCH FUN!
ANYONE USE ALPHA OMEGA PRODUCTS?
Here is another giveaway idea…
Alpha Omega gave me a few hats to give to my readers who tried the products after reading my blogs… Well, since I don’t sell any product, I don’t know who purchased AO products because they read about them in my blog. Therefore, I never gave away the hats.
*I love the Anti-Flam, the Sinew X, the Biotic 8, Respi-Free and the Para X (I’ve linked all my blogs about them to each item).
So, if you are an Alpha Omega user and would like a hat, just write to me and tell me about your horses and what results you’ve seen. I’ll send them all to AO and maybe yours would be chosen as a testimonial! Who knows… maybe they will send you a sample product for your chosen testimonial.
In the meantime, just tell me what color hat you’d like when you send in your story. I have 9 hats total in black, royal blue, navy, powder blue and pink.
HORSE AND MAN is a blog in growth… if you like this, please pass it around!
