Young Steve Barber and the Long Island Icelandic's



Very special photo: It is a photo of a young Steve Barber, taken probably in the late 70’s. The place was Caumsett State Park on Long Island. The horses undoubtedly are the Icelandic horses brought over that became later known as the “Long Island Herd”. That is special enough considering Steve’s involvement with the breed today. But the really amazing part is that we believe the pinto in the photo is none other than Skutla frá Þverholtum - or “Saint Skutla” - the horse our regional club is named after.
Thank you Andrea and William Barber for sharing this wonderful photo and story!
