I got the saddle, a headstall, a blanket & a saddle pad. Not too shabby for twenty bucks. The saddle looked like hell though. \u2060\n\u2060\nI decided to refurbish it. It still looks rough upfront -- as you can see i've still got some work to do before i'm finished. Considering how bad it looked i did a decent job bringing it back from the depths of despair, but as i have no photo evidence you'll have to take my word for it. The years watching Morfar shine my boots really paid off though.\u2060\n\u2060\nAnyway I've decided to donate this one to my friends at @habitat_for_horses and hopefully they can get some use out of it. Any tips on where to pick up old saddles in need of TLC -- hit me up!\u2060\n\u2060\n#horserescue #saddleup #westernlife #horsebackriding \u2060#horselife #journey #westernlifestyle #horsestagram \u2060\n#horsemanship #equestrianlife #equine\u2060","id":"17925755422756657","media_type":"IMAGE","timestamp":"2021-10-13T11:01:34+0000","username":"itsizzieflynn","permalink":"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CU92P3TN9ms\/"}
