Oh, that's good! I was thinking "cripes, I hope not to a kill buyer!" The only auction I've ever been to is where people go to dump horses and meat buyers go to fill their trailers. How did you know they were sired by Kee? Did it say in the auction or something? I think iti's fascinating.

Oh no dont get me wrong, this isnt your average auction. Mt. Hope sale is a VERY lovely sale. It is an amish auction and horse go for sometimes up to 50k I have seen friesian studs, gypsy vanners, and many other exotic breeds go through. All his offspring went for very good money and I suppose great homes. They most certainly went higher than what I could afford lol!

I had no idea any of Kee's offspring was going to auctions. I hope they went to good homes?

Ooo, I would have to get out the sale book. We went to Mt. Hope auction over in Ohio and there was a stud colt and a filly there. Let me see if I can dig out the book in a few :)

Who have you seen? :)

Bridles. Hanging them in particular. I splurge on good reins - custom cut harness leather that cost more than I'd like to admit but I can't stand cheap reins. If I catch someone (student, hubby,...
