1/13/2011 - WELCOME!
Thank you so much for checking out my site! I would like to let you know a bit about me and my model hobby! I've been collecting since before I can remember! I've always loved horses real and plastic! I was in my first real horse show at 2 and a half years old. Gotta love Leadline class at Bit's & Spur's! From there I showed local zone shows, and also Arabian and Pinto shows. My first horse, Kickapoo John, was many miles away at my Grandma's house, so I had to pass the time with my models. My first model horse show was The Shining Aspen show at Gerry Andal's in Everett, WA on April 22, 1989. I did a few of those until getting my driver's license and boys got in the way. I packed those models away until October of 2008 when I was cruising around on the internet and found the Tri-Cities Fall Classic. I was hooked, again!! Since that show, I have been to many live model shows, including the last 2 NAN's in Portland, OR and Lexington, KY. I fulfilled a life long dream last year, when my husband and I were able to attend Equilocity and Breyerfest. Don't let him fool you, if you've met him, you know that he's a hobbyist, too!! Our specialty is OF Stone Horses, but we have a few Breyers and custom's as well.
My next goal is to host a show, so that's where we're at! This page will be for all updates, so please check back frequently!! Please email me with any suggestions and questions!!
