Yes, that would, in theory, work, but I'm more inclined to make foolish purchases when caught up in the moment of Devon. I'd wanted one for years and not taken the plunge until devon last year.....and all year long i've avoided buying it again.


Sounds like me Rachel!


Hehe, I'm so excited too, this is my first trip to Devon and I'm super super super excited, and am sure I will be making lots of foolsih purchases!!! :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

I will see if I can take pictures on Sunday of the souvenirs and report back. So far I am pre-Devon picking up a tie for MissWade and 2 for Hillary. If I understand correctly, there is nothing else pre-Devon! The tee shirts won't sell out, they will be available during Devon for sure.

It's also kinda important to buy from the vendors at Devon so it shows to them it's worth their while to be there. if they don't make money they may not keep coming!

Oh, Mizzwade, i'll go in and make you not buy a waffle sheet for Ice while you keep me away from the crop at Malvern---and then you can end up with a crop, and I the waffle sheet--sounds fair, doesn't it?

About the crop.......

My trainer had a similar one and thought someone "permanently borrowed" it at a horse show a few years ago, probably at Lexington. How she missed that crop! It had her initials (RK) on it.

Well, at this year's March Lexington show, one of the nice ladies in the show office gave it to her!! Said that she found it at the show a few years ago, and tried to return it to Rachel Kennedy, who said that it was not hers. I guess there are only so many RK's in the ring :P , so the gal kept it, knowing that eventually she would run into Renne at a show - and she did this year. Renee was soooooo happy!!! :clap: She could not thank the gal enough.

So, maybe, just maybe, your crop will catch up to you? Being verrrryyy optimistic here. :) But you never know!

And on the shopping front - my friend MB confirmed that the Cotton Patch will not be set up at Devon. :,( But, in its normal spot (behind the show office) will be a different vendor called Shorty's Loft. I was not given the details of what they will be selling - sorry about that!

are you sure that K wasn't an H? he he!

I can't recall whether mine had RH or RHE

But it's certainly a good story! Thanks for the inspiration! And it's also nice to know that RBK didn't claim it as her own!

RH, I'll buy one of those crops if you buy one!!! :innocent:

Seriously, I haven't owned a crop in I don't know how many years. I've been using Ms. Trainer's very lucky crop and I worry when carrying it around. I don't want anything to happen to it.

Suddenly I'm feeling the need for a crop, too, and I don't even use one for the most part. The shopping insanity is already beginning....

(tempt tempt tempt)

I am not a bit tempted on the crop though. I have a terrible habit of leaving crops places. Even at my own boarding barn. I'll leave them all over the place. I cannot trust myself with a nice crop. No way no how.
