We went to the school board meeting last night, and Daughter, Son-in-Law, a lawyer, and a member of AIM spoke to them about Grandson's hair, and the spiritual significance of long hair to Native American Males, as well as reminded them of the Federal Laws they would be violating if they stood firm on this issue. The School Board sidestepped the issue by saying that since we haven't taken up residence in Needville yet, and haven't enrolled Grandson in school, that it is a non-issue. We will be moved onto the property by the end of the month, but this means we need to start over again at square one as soon as we take up residence. What a waste of time and energy. I guess they think we are going to just dry up and blow away in the next 30 days because we don't yet reside in Needville. I don't think so. The Department of Justice wrote a letter to the superintendent. We don't know what it said, but when Son-in-law mentioned it to Curtis Rhodes last evening, he wasn't happy.
On another note, Rosie isn't PG. The vet palpated her, and when he found nothing, he ultra sounded her. Still nothing. He said, as there were no follicles on her ovaries, she most likely had just cycled off her heat. This fit with her reactions on Wednesday, when we brought her home. She was fully in season, and trying to lure the geldings to her. He said she could have been in foal from her first heat with the stallion, not produced enough progesterone for the embryo to implant, re-sorbed it, and just been coming into season for the second time when she was removed from the stallions pen, several days before we picked her up.
