Well...it's been a nice ride...end of the trail...lots of metaphors for this final time in my former favorite store in LV for over 7 years. What was once an all but one stop Western/English shop for my horses' needs is now little more than a gift and trendy clothing shop, and gear for the English rider, staffed by ladies who don't know and don't care. In the early days, every customer could count on personalized help from subject matter experts (Rebecca...I need you!) who cared and remembered.
I leave now, remembering the old WC Equestrian fondly, and looking north down the road just a bit to an equestrian store with what I need for my horses.
