Anyone here going to the mini auction

[qtrrae]

Hey Tobey,

When you see me, just stick your foot out and trip me, I have been known to walk right by people that I know! I am so involved with looking at the horses that I totally ignore the people.

Once I walked right by Marnie and never said a word, actually, I never even noticed her and she has NEVER let me forget it!!!

It should be fun to see and meet some of the LB Forum people.

Marnie and I usually sit way over on the right hand side of the bleachers! Hope to see and meet you!!

I'll have the bushy hair but I did wash the grey away. And the one who has to put her glasses on every time she looks in the sale catalog!

You all are making this sound like so much fun, I wish I did not live over a thousand miles away!

I was thinking the same thing.

I saw a mini yearling paint stud colt sell for $75 at the Equity livestock auction tonight in Eau Claire...So if that is any indication of prices

Our local sale yard, holds a horse sale once a month (definitely not top-end, mostly a dumping ground for horses, but an occassional good one goes through). Anyway, a couple months ago two mini stallions (no papers); one 3yo and one 4 yo, went through for $100 for both.

Minis just aren't what sells around here, drafts don't sell well either; saddle horses do the best and even those sales are pretty pathetic. Although, I have to admit I bought a pretty nice AQHA weanling colt there about 3 years ago. Here's my sale find as a 2 year old gelding (last winter).

Tango - dun AQHA gelding

I need to get to work with his saddle training.
