This is Lexi and her colt, Ringo.  He was only a few weeks old here, and he is now 1 year old!  Lexi is a Budweiser Clydesdale and Ringo is a Drum horse...his dad is a gorgeous gypsy horse, British Sterling. These are just a couple of my animal family members here at Recycled Ranch, along with 2 more horses, 4 dogs, and a cat.

Recycled Ranch is located out in Waddell, Az.  I started collecting vintage patio furniture a few years ago, and the pile just grew and grew!  Then I started adding other stuff to the pile.....industrial, rusty salvage stuff, garden decor, and just downright weird stuff!  Anyway, the pile is so big now that I need to start living up to my name...this stuff needs to be recycled!!  I am at the point of  either rehoming some of this cool junk or risk being buried alive! 

This blog stuff is very new to me....so my postings may be slow, but I will try hard to get photos on and show my current junk pile and the transformation as I clear out and get organized!!  I am so ready for this!!

I have a really big garage..it has yet to have a vehicle parked inside...that will be the day!  I have piles of vintage patio furniture waiting for paint and new cushions.....patience!!  My porches are bursting with stuff, antique pieces of furniture in need of a little work...ok...some needs alot of work and alot of imagination.....in time.

I just opened a new shop with a very good friend, so I should not have any excuses for holding on to this stuff much longer....it needs to go!  The shop is called "Then Again AZ".  It is located at 11222 N. Cave Creek Rd.  It is a bit of a drive for me, but what a great place!  Lots of windows and a fantastic landlord!!  I will be adding stuff from my pile into the shop....something every day...at least one thing moved from here to there.....that is the goal.  I want to see my porch again!  I would love to have room in my garage to do some simple upholstery work and furniture renovation.  A ginormous goal.  I will take things to the shop and show things here at Recycled Ranch by appointment.  Ye Haw!!

 I will try to add more photos tomorrow!!
