We left MD on Friday morning. Got to Stauton VA at Ricky and gailfinney farm. Lint rode Rawhide. They both did ok. After Ricky rode him and we figured out some tack issues. We went to a tack auction in Roanoke, picked up a few things. Then this morning we hooked up and broke camp. Loaded Rawhide and he is riding well. Not fretting at all. We stopped at a rest stop and offered him water and checked on him. We are about 2hrs for our overnight facility. Truck tool light came on a few times. Lint just recycled the ignition as we went down hill and it cleared it. So good so far....Will try and gets pics done later..

We got to our over night place. Rawhide has done very well. No fussing at all. Turned him in the trailer to get him off. Have to work on that. Over all he gets a 10+. blue ribbon Now if he continues to do so...We went out to Applebee's for dinner. Then hit the food store for some breakfast biscuits. All is good in Kingston TN...Now if we can get through Nashville with out any problem's. All in all so far so good. We are a little over 500 miles from home. Of course Lint wants to stop at Lambert's. cheersI just want to get home and relax a few before I start again. Now he has taken stuff out of MY tool box cause he didn't need it on the last trip. I lit into him. Because of that we have no hose to put water in fresh water take...I wish he would leave MY MY MY trailer stuff alone...I have made it over 8 yrs without help,  WHY ME?? He's getting on my last nerve!! Can't even enjoy a ride because he wants to ride Rawhide and I can see crap happening.He's to green of a rider to handle him if he acts up. And he is greener never off farm...So we'll see what happens...It's going to be interesting for sure... |

Jo Yea it did turn into a vent..  We are on the road again. We had to recycle the engine twice. We think we have it figured out. Thinking it's the turbo. It only does it when we are pulling a good climb. So after we get back from this weekend's camp out. We'll take it to the dealer and see if they can at least check it over. But it may not do it if it isn't under a load.
My son, wife, and their mini pig Molly came over for a visit before we pulled out. Sweet Pea wasn't thrilled with the pig after it bit her. But then she let her climb into her bed with her....We are getting close to Nashville. So far traffic has been easy going...... |
