Wow! I'll have to check my schedule to see if I can come down for it. I'm more in the "collecting" than "de-stashing" phase of my horse career, so perhaps I'll find something I have to have!
Belinda, do you mind if I cross post this sale info to our SAFER forum (Sonoma county)?

The time is flying by!!!!
Please clean out your tack rooms for those items you don't need anymore. Donate them to the rescue for a tax deduction or bring that saddle down and swap for one that works for you!
We want to have all items collected by the 10th for preperation. Please help us make this a successful fundraiser.

Leaving Wa tomorrow-dinner in McMinnville Or Tuesday, Santa Cruz Shakesspeare Festival Wednesday eve, probably staying in Carmel Thursday, want to go look at a horse trailer for sale in Concord-wherever that is, and possibly visit with clients of mine that moved to Modesto area. Only things certain are dinner with Auntie and Midsummer Night's Dream.

Thanks for the wishes, I have high hopes!!! some of the tack items being collected have been sold even before hitting the sale table, (collecting at Dave's barn) so that's a good sign. If you are around Livermore (on your way to Concord) give me a shout

Our food booth is going to be run by a youth outreach program in San Jose. They have lost their funding so will have a little yard sale booth of their own, (items not horse related). I am taking a couple boxes of decorative items there for them so there's even more to choose from....

We made it as far as Yreka today.......I need a english bridle, possibly even a western one. What I had bought already-is more warmblood size-too big for her dainty head.

Didn't get online in Carmel-got there and the Concours d'Elegance was going on-and we also got to see Oliver at the Forest Theater-so just now seeing ths notes and pm's-eeek-sorry didn't meet up with anyone-wouldda been fun-Best of luck with the fundraiser. In Concord we met up with someone who showed us her trailer-up at Mt Diablo-so it sounds like we drove right by a few of you guys-maybe if we decide to come back for the trailer-we can meet then?

Bernice-gal that didn't start riding until she was 50-had her horse 20 years and lost her about 3-4 years ago (mare lived to be 31) I am sure you do know her if you know the MtD trail riding club-they seem to be real active.-sh esaid she rode daily before work and 6-7 hour rides on weekends
If anyone is looking for a 3 horse slant MorganBuilt in that area-she is finally starting to part with her horse stuff-she still misses that mare-but seems real agile/active-but doesn't want to commit to getting another one.
