I cut in a switch in a place I thought would be convenient.
..and this is what they look like on!
This is a view of the goose neck area of the trailer. Now I just need to start looking for a good air mattress again!

Trailer Work
I wired 2 of these lights into the dressing room of my horse trailer. I picked them because they looked a bit old fashioned without being too formal.

Gathering Equipment for Show Season!
I bought this stool for many reasons. A normal mounting block with 2 steps is too short to easily mount my horse when I am riding aside. The 3 step mounting blocks are very cumbersome and heavy. This one is not only light weight and tall enough..
...but it also converts from a step stool to a chair!

While I am FORCED to Recover...
..I used this time to send my sidesaddle away to be restored. I knew when I
purchased it, it would have to be restored. A few seams were pulling apart, one of the horns had some wear in the leather, making it look more like suede than leather and the panels were 'odd' looking to me.
I sent my saddle to:
Lillian ? (sorry I forgot her last name)
Heritage Tack &Saddlery
420 Green Street
Willows, Ca. 95988
She came HIGHLY recommended by so many people that did not know each other, that I chose her over the very few others who are qualified to do this kind of work.
I sent her my saddle 3 weeks ago. She was very forthcoming that there were 2 saddles in line before mine, but promised to have it back to me by October. I hope it comes a bit earlier since I am so new at riding and need much practice before I show! She is going to send me before and after pictures along with a write up about my saddle...which I will share with you all! She already told me my Champion and Wilton saddle was made between 1890 and 1910. I can't wait to see it!
