Ok Deb,
Its official! My saddle has been found! YIIPPPEEE! It seems that my saddle was taken by an individual and is NOT part of the BIG tack theft ring that has been plaguing my area. As I am very happy about its return, I am sorely aware that there still several hundred saddles missing from the state of Kansas alone.

My saddle was recovered because of MY efforts. Not law enforcement. If I had not hung my posters at every tack and Antique store in town I would not have recovered it. I am still missing quite a bit of stuff but the main item has been returned. 

Thanks for the efforts of the group
AMY
