  Nice pic of my youngest girl when she was just starting out about two years ago. I use the truck tire drag for light smoothing and breaking manure up on the trails and lane. She was walking with me and wanted to try it out. But I did not have the extensions on the reins hence she had to walk along side. That is my lead and he is a good training horse. Hope the pics come thru. |

| Hey! My cousin, eight times removed, visited this same place in July of 1863. He and his friends found out they weren't welcome so they came back to Dixie. |

| I help out the maint. dept at the battlefield with the trails. The drag breaks up manure piles and smooths the trail. I will add weight to the drag for the washed out sections. Park visitors love to see the horse and harness set up. He also loves the attention. |

| Yes, she can stand on the drag alter after she learns to handle the lines. Last thing you want is an inexperienced person trying to balance on a plank and using the lines as a way to keep from falling off. That can lead to rodeos and spoiled horses, not to mention hurt people.
Looks like a Haflinger from behind. I have a team of 4 year olds I'm starting now. |

| As a kid I started working mules about the age of 8. My first job was to drag the ground behind the tractor doing the plowing. I did this with a team. Glad to see your daughter pulling the tire drag. It will give her some perspective what it was like in the old days. |
