They said if I build it they will come.....so we'll see.

This is certainly not going to be any type of fancy shop that's for sure. I'm having to use the old loading dock for my front entrance and brother, that needs some serious attention. I have repair after repair to make.

My little empty room was more cruddy than I first thought so I spent a good week scrubbing the walls then painting them. What a mess! I made a home made sign out of plywood and printed out letters from my computer, build saddle racks and bridle racks and hung clothing racks all out of stuff I had laying around.

I had my first customer drop off some show clothing today and tack within an hour of my opening, and I have been promised quite a quite a few more things in the next few days. My poor little store is still virtually empty in need of a lot of stock so I"ve been very busy networking with local stables and saddle clubs.

Anyhow, here it is

I am so excited for you! By the way, too bad we aren't closer to each other. My old truck needs some work.
 
Oh Marty, that looks like such fun! I have always wanted to open a little place like that! My little dream was to open a green house! I love plants and flowers and have abit of knowlage from working at a nursery for years. I wish you the best!

And tell Dan a good mechanic is worth his weight in gold! My hubby loves to do engine work. Right now he's just had a guy bring him his 9n Ford that went swimming in his pond Saturday!
