Finally Get To Ride One of My Own!!!
Dear Friends,
Can it really be November? And can Christmas really be 5 weeks away? It was a wonderful day to ride today….got to go out to the Pawnee with Tuesday’s group lesson and actually rode one of my own horses (see the above photo. She is for sale!…not me, the horse)! It just doesn’t get better than a day like today!
The Christmas Open House and Sale flier for the tack shop Is below. Download and save!!! November 28-30 are the dates, good food, good friends and good time to “swap lies”! Hope to see you then!
Monday, December 1st, I will be in Boulder doing a horsemanship/trail clinic (Eldorado Springs). Let me know if you could join us that day from 10-3 and I will send you details. Space is limited and the cost is $125.00 for the day.
And may you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving day next week!
November, Already?!!

Dear Friends,
Aren’t you glad you don’t live in Deadwood, SD today? With almost 4 feet of snow, 60-70 mph winds and twenty foot drifts it made our “cleansing breezes” here yesterday seem not so bad!
Thanks to Kim Heavey for a hosting such a wonderful clinic in Elbert at her beautiful facility last Saturday! We worked on everything from ground work to flying lead changes, whew! Sure kept my brain working! Was a great day for Steve and I, thank you Kim and Lon!
With the days getting shorter and nights getting longer it gives us an opportunity to catch up on some reading or watching those DVD’s and videos that the great horseman/woman have put out for us. Bridle Bit Tack shop was the fortunate recipient of a life time collection of equine books and tapes from Connie and Bob Brown which we have put into a “lending library”. The list of books and tapes is too long to list here but if you are interested give us a call or email and we can let you know what we have. Bob and Connie have also put on consignment their life time of tack and gear they accumulated on their ranch in Wyoming. There are three very nice saddles, 2 from King’s Saddlery in Sheridan, along with everything else you can think of for your horse and barn. Again, too much to list so give us an email or call!
We have openings on Saturdays for private lessons or half day clinics on the following dates;
- November 8 and 15
- December 6, 13 and 20
Give us a call or email if you would like to schedule either a lesson or a clinic.
Mark your calendar for our 13th Annual Christmas Open House on November 28 (9-5), 29th (9-5) and 30th (1-5). There will be big discounts on selected items and back by popular demand the “pick your discount” off the tree!! Refreshments and time to catch up on your year’s happenings is our favorite part, look forward to seeing you! I (Steve has asked me to leave him out of this category!) am glad to be your “personal shopper” so call me for gift ideas and I can ship it to you. We are also discounting special orders, so if we don’t have it in stock we can order it for you….just don’t wait too long, there are only 7 more weeks until Christmas!
Have a wonderful weekend!
