Matt,

I was not going to, but I guess I will give you the whole story.

This trailer is going to be used by, but not owned by, me to transport a just under 2 year old horse that was rescued from a kill pen at an auction in north central Wisconsin. The horse was scheduled to be sold for slaughter. What he needs is left rear hoof joint surgery (not cheap) which will be done at the University of Wisconsin in Madison. My contribution to the effort is transporting the horse to Madison and later from Madison to Batavia, IL. Madison is 200 miles one way from here and it will take at least 2 trips. That is why this trailer needs good tires. These tires just added $500 to my contribution.

The end result we hope for is a healthy horse and his trailer to end up at a stable near Batavia, IL. One other thing I agreed to is to haul my John Deere up there in the spring (95 miles one way) to cut and level out a new field for horses at the stable in return for reduced stable rent. The stable has room for 8 horses and the new owner has 3 there now so this one will be #4. The new stable owner is a male nurse at a local hospital.

I might add that I know nothing about and have never transported a horse.

I am just glad that the horse was not in the trailer while I went through all of this mess a few days ago.

Now if the weather will just cooperate (no ice or snow) for the days I am on the road we should be OK.
