that has NEVER happened before.
I went in a tack shop and didn't see anything I wanted.
Granted, it WAS Coastal--but still--not a single thing.
My tack collection has reached a zenith where I have good quality equipment in about every area I would need it. It's taken me 10 years...but, I'm pretty happy with the gear I have now.
I have a lovely HDR Rivella jump saddle and Exselle show bridle with two sets of nice reins, one extra long, and a beautiful merino sheepskin show pad (you know, in case I ever decide to ride that way again);
The Jim Taylor reiner;
My small shop El Dorado training saddle that I like & that fits Chevy;
A nice little Lazy L by Larry Coats barrel saddle hardly used from 2007;
Two complete, nice leather loose ring snaffle bridles that girls go in, each with awesome weighted Buckaroo Leather split reins, one pair 1", other pair 1/2" (turns out good quality reins are one of my "things");
A Martin sidepull (which I never use);
A gorgeous black Guitron kangaroo bosal and mane hair mecates;
Two good wool pads, one Reinsman, one Classic Equine, and one Pro Choice pad;
About 10 nice snaffles I never use, and all kinds of other misc tack of somewhat lesser quality than above (but still nice).
I hardly ever sell good quality things--because I could, in most cases, never afford to replace them. But, I guess it's time to sell some stuff. I need the money. First on the chopping block: The JT reiner. Phooo.
