Good luck on finding oats in Death Valley.

some else did it from our area years ago with a old covered wagon with truck tires on it.wonder what the laws of the roads are for pulling a horse drawn wagon,i think a rideing horse and pack horse would be better you could get farther off the road and be safer.it would be a interesting trip.

I hope he has someone to care for the gray's feet. Even just 10 miles a day will be rough on the horse day after day. Are there enough dirt roads to go anywhere of distance?

Back in the Dirty Thirties( Great Depression) in Saskatchewan and I'm sure Other Places, Many a Farmer dumped the Motor and Transmission Out of the Model T's and Hitched a Horse or Team to the Front! They Called them Bennett Buggies in Canada!

If This current Recession continues it May Be a solution once more!

What's with the Spell check??
