Sounds kinda silly but, no its not a foal but just as exciting for me.
We bought a two horse straight load trailer from a friend 3yrs ago. We have used it locally on occasion to get horses moved to and from the stable. Always one pulling the trailer and someone else following behind. Well, in the pooring down rain this morning my wonderful nephew came over and redid the lights from start to finish. All work properly now and are very bright. Yippee! Next he setup the brake controller which got me two new fuses. LOL! Hopped in my truck and made sure it was set just perfect for the trailer brakes to work correctly.
This is an older two horse trailer, fully enclosed with a small ramp which makes it so much easier for the little ones to get in the trailer. It also has a dressing room in the front with built in saddle racks and tack hangers. I told my daughter there is room enough in the tack room that a person could throw down an air mattress and sleep in there if they had to. Their is a roof vent over that area but no windows that open. We can easily haul two of our horses with a couple bales of hay and the carts in the back of the pickup and head for the beach. Of course she will probably ask me to take a sedative just to keep me calm on the trip but what the heck we are now mobile.
This is so wonderful after getting The Duck trained to drive and working with Ariel getting her head back into driving. Of course Jimmy can go also but not with any of the Mares. Woo Hoo!
