    Didn’t team them up but I did drive scarlet in the two wheeled cart with the skis on. She did good but likes to run then stop and not go like hell. I ground drove her pulled a sled and some chaines before I hitched her to the cart. Eli

    I drove ground drove scarlet for an hour then I dragged the chains for ten min or so then added a single tree for ten then added a chain all went well. But wen I hooked a peice of fire wood she did good on the first one then wouldn’t pull the second one she would bump it then back up or try to spin so I went back to dragging the chain and single tree. Then unhooked everything and drove her into barn and put her away . All in all she did good, thank god she is a calm horse never gets to rattled and stops when I say woa and let’s me help her. They say curlies like to think their way out of trouble and she sure seams to. Soon I will hook her to the two wheeled cart. I was hoping the snow would stay so I could put the skies on the cart for something different . Eli

    the arch needs sand blasting and paint and taller tires. it was built from things i had lying around. i plan to build a removable hitch so i can use it like a forecart. also a farn sleigh and a two wheeled cart eli
    Ps the two wheeled cart i built after my cousin gave us a small Morgan she could no longer care for (divorce) and it was broke to drive her name is gypsy and now I’m hooked. Also pics of our doctors buggy gypsy and my little girl and one of my favorite pictures.
