That is the question!
I've been debating whether or not to sell my Meadowbrook cart and beautiful antique candy-apple red sleigh. I bought them both from a local lady about five years ago and bought an old used harness made by the Amish in Pennsylvannia on a family trip there. I've enjoyed using them the few times I have, but that's the problem, the "few" times I have! So, because I haven't used them as often as I thought I would, I'm considering selling them and listed them on Kijiji recently. A lady's been showing some interest, wanted to see the harness, so I hooked up my old Quarterhorse mare the other day and took her for a bit of a spin. It was so much fun! And now I'm second guessing my desire to sell. Aaack!!!
Anyway, here are a few pictures of me with Little Bit, as well as the girls, who thought it was great sport! And I've also added a picture of our sleigh, so you'll see why I'm a tad reluctant to let it go. On the other hand, they take up a good bit of room in our shed, and if I'm not using them very often...
Well, you see my dilemma!
Hello Bethany!
ReplyDeleteI can see your dilemma! I thought the cart and sleigh were beautiful when we looked at them in the shed, but seeing them hooked up to your horse, well...I don't know if I could make that choice either!

Could they seasonally make you a bit of money? Not to be a burden to you, but using them for service somehow (we non-horse non-farm owners love the novelty of things like this!)? Might justify the cost/space of keeping them! Just a thought! They are lovely! I can see your dilemma!

What a lovely picture you all make. I can see why you'd like to keep it.
ReplyDeleteDon't sell them, they're beautiful! You could give rides for a small fee and people, especially children, would love it!
