BreyerMidwest Day 2

 Well, the second day of BreyerMidwest is over! It was...a bit slower of a day than yesterday, but that's probably for the best, considering the extremely long drive awaiting me tomorrow. It was a pretty leisurely day, really - sleep in, head to Equifest, wander around there for a while...the only deadline I really had was getting to the silent auction at 2:30 (success!) and then the swap meet at 7 (also success!) Behold, the day's purchases! 









I was successful in both of today's goals - get the glossy Athenian Lady in the silent auction, and find a gray Salud! Woohoo! I also found the two blind bag Stablemates I still needed from last year's new series (well, technically I still need the G2 TB chase piece, but I don't want to pay much more than retail for it), plus a red filigree Wassail for a decent price. Not pictured: the two pony pouches I bought with the last of my cash. They're intended for Stablemate foals, with two spaces each. I may have to buy more later if I keep showing a lot of Stablemate foals.

So the swap meet was a success as well, although the room really wasn't quite big enough for the amount of selling going on within. There was a big long hallway right outside, so I kinda figure some of those tables could have gone out there? They probably could have sold even more tables, too. I'm low-key jealous I couldn't get into the swap meet, because there were a ton of people shopping and it would have been great to get some stuff sold. Oh well.

So that's pretty much it for my BreyerMidwest trip! Now to get some rest before the long drive tomorrow.
