----------I went to the Albany Oregon show. Only a few rollers..less than 20. But one ash red indigo YC stood out like a sore thumb. Really showing...round, round, and around he went..for hours. He ended up BOB..Terry Gier of Sacramento owned him. I asked Gier what the back ground was and he said.."Don Pinney blood"...In 2008 I picked 3 of 4 top rollers that turned out Pinney blood. One of Don's friends was there and called him on the phone and I spoke to him for a bit. Very nice man. His birds do spin well, I have three pair at my house from Eldon Crabtree of Idaho who got them almost 40 years ago and kept them straight. Crabtree has won the Kennewick show 3 years in a row, and Albany in 2008. Bruce
