    For some reason I was expecting living show horses. Bummer.

    The models look good. Still I am getting Schleich for home. Yeah I know they are kid toys but they look awesome :-)

    I had to Google the word Schleich to see if you were cussing in another language :)

    I went onto <a href="https://www.happyhentoys.com/schleich-knights--- castle.html">the website</a> and sent a message to them to add their site to my <a
    href="https://www.recsites.com/">Recreation and Hobby Directory</a>. We'll see how
    that goes.

    Thanks for your post!

    Hahaha, did you really have to look Schleich up? They are well known.

    Very solid toys if I may add. Some kindergartens are getting them because they
    take more abuse than
    it seems.

    I am just getting them because I like horse things. I love having my bedroom full of horse
    figures, since my family never will let me get the real horses in :-) I am slowly collecting
    families of Schleich horses because I want to have a mare, stallion and foal of
    each breed I like.

    Collecting these things is worse than heroin.

    It does sound like you have an addiction :) That's OK. It can't hurt anyone, and you are
    helping to keep the economy going. Any other collection addictions?

    I'm not sure of the name of this museum, but there is one in Tallahassee that has a huge
    collection of knives, but a lot more. Cars, organs, and a lot more. I assume it wouldn't be
    too far from where you live. My wife and I really loved it.

    I collect knives, mostly. But I don't have a consumist streak for these.

    What I mean is if I see a knife with some cool feature or characteristic none of my other knives have, I am likely to get it. However, I am unlikely to have more than one knife of a particular style.

    drive from Tally.... but, he lives in Spain. ;-)

    Yeah, I don't like that everybody is setting their own board for themselves and then the board has
    the founder as their only user.

    I like the fact I can let somebody do the hard work of setting the board up and then use his board.
    It is more cost effective :-)

    <GRIN> Happy to have you as a user. Appreciative, even. :-)
