Stone Mesa Believer

I got a Stone horse from MHSales that Liz LaRose is hosting on Facebook. She's selling Mry Mudget's pieces for her. It's rare for me to buy a Stone; I have 1,000+ models, but only eight of them are Stones. This makes my ninth. And it's an early one.

 It's a Stone Mesa Believer, and was made in 1996-1997.  Arriving with its original box and hang tag was a pleasant surprise.

So was the fact that it had been signed by Peter Stone.

While I like many of the Stone models, they are generally too pricey for what I want to pay. I'm really happy that I found this piece at such a good price.

HR Sky Chief

I went to the Stone spring horse show and bought myself a retirement gift.

Sky Chief, B-682, 11958-1959, 1968, Hagen Renaker, $225, Alicia Strayer-Mangan, Stone horse show, 5/2018

 He is my retirement gift to myself - I had budgeted $300 and thought I would buy a Stone Andalusian, but they were sold out.

My class motto (coined by the kids themselves) is "Flying high with Mrs. I." Well, he is SKY chief! And so he came home with me!

HR Miss Pepper

I went to the Stone Country Fair and Liz Isham Cry had this Miss Pepper for sale.
