Last year, we would hitch our pony Napoleon to an old sulky, load it up with hay, and venture on a trail we cut through
the bushes to reach the pastures where some 20 hungry mouth wee waiting for their hay.
the bushes to reach the pastures where some 20 hungry mouth wee waiting for their hay.
Besides being time consuming, it was treacherous..there was a huge tree root, that would jeopardize the load, and if not navigated correctly would tip the bales right into the mud. After the root was a huge boulder, to steer clear from it Napoleon would have to go trough the thickest of the mud, a useless hardship in his opinion... Then to go back and get the next load...
Today,...where to start..we have a gaiter on loan!!! Yes! A green gaiter, with a little dump bed....big round tires as to not damage the grass... It hauls all the hay we want...and...a ROAD!!! No tree roots, no boulders and...NO MUD!!!! I NEVER thought I would like progress, but here I am...life is soo much easier now.
We easely zoom down the road, not to mention all the time we save...
As cool as the "wagon" was,...thank goodness our "pioneer" days are OVER!!!!
