"My Appaloosa is larger than 14 hands, though!"

Now I know we've got an option if our horse trailer has a problem!  My
Appaloosa is larger than 14 hands, though!

Well will wonders never cess? Today we took out the center seat and carpet,
put a board across, behind the front seats and hay on the floor. Then we
loaded up a horse, she's small only 14 hands. Did not leave much room.

Yesterday we had moved our little pony 9 hands (just let him stand between
the center seat and the back seat), he is not much bigger than a very large
dog (wolf hound) and it gave us the courage to try the larger horse.
Sometimes he even acts like a dog, will chase people who do not belong on
our property. My kids have come to calling him our "watch horse."

So much for needing a horse trailer when you have the "all purpose" vanagon.

Like that TV ad "whats in your wallet," lets make it "what was in your
vanagon?"
