[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Middleburg Tack Exchange[/quote]

A few distinct groups here:

- Tourists buying items because they're reminiscent of "quintessential Middleburg" (probably the smallest of the groups listed)

- 30-something gay men visiting Middleburg from NYC or DC who run lifestyle Instagrams and like to cosplay as "high society" from around 1920-1950.  They don't have any experience riding horses or hunting (in the vast majority of instances), but the Middleburg trip sure does make for AMAZING aspirational lifestyle photos!  If they don't visit The Inn at Little Washington and mention it on the 'gram, the trip never happened.  They may appear pretentious, but are usually good guys.

- 30-something straight women.  Similar to the gay men when it comes to the aspirational content (though their's is lacking in quality and is very much a 3rd rate production in comparison; also more likely to be unpaid work), but wayyyyy meaner and nastier, even to one another once the alcohol starts flowing.  Probably drunk on wine from the nearby vineyards and rude to the shopkeepers.  One member of the group will probably break down crying at some point and the rest have to comfort her and get her an Uber home.

- The empty-nester men and women who moved to Middleburg after getting tired of the Big Law grind because they genuinely love horses and hunting.  They hate all the other groups and are friends with the MTE owners.  They also retain PT Of Counsel positions in their respective law firms because WHY would you turn off that gravy train?

- Middle-aged SAHMs who FINALLY got away from their kiddos and not-so-dear husbands (because Larlo promised her LAST week that he was gonna watch the kids, so she planned the Middleburg girls' trip and then had to reschedule because he had a socially-distant golf game with a client.  But hey, this is what she signed up for when she became an Executive's wife).  It's girls' weekend and they just had lunch at the Red Fox Inn and are excited to go for their group horseback riding lesson.  But first -- securing the proper attire!  Off to MTE they go.  They're very nice to the shopkeepers and staff, even if Larla's 5YO son DID try to FaceTime her 7 times in a row because Paw Patrol had a funny scene on.[/quote]
