story of a foal :)
So with the PST to MST time adjustment, just about 12 years ago, Dot went into labor :)
I used to have a website about Denali's birth (I still have it, but haven't gotten around to re-uploading it because it is ancient and a bit silly) so I forget that these images are no longer generally available (I took it down a few years ago, or 5).
So, March 4th 2000, shortly after 11pm PST :)
(yeah, that's me. interesting that the hair is the same length. again. although I've entirely chopped it off twice since then! I was there for the entire birth, very much 'attended' and Dot was a gem enough to allow me there without a single issue)
Standing by herself for the first time :)
Dot checks out what she's delivered :)
... and Dot naps a bit.
(and check out the ears on BOTH! in case you weren't certain what Dot's DNA contributed here....)
these are, obviously, ancient screen caps. I should both get the video digitized (it's digital print onto tape) as well as see what better screen caps technology can do 12 years later :D (any suggestions? probably easier to outsource it, at least the digitizing)
