This is the wife last night. I apologize for the image quality. I'm not sure what the problem was.
Looks like fun to me, you need room on that sleigh for 2 to cuddle.
:good:
There are several here that have their team and wagons traveling about every month of the year. I am sure that if snow stayed on the ground long enough they would be on sleighs.
Did she jingle all the way?
:coffee:
That sled is meant for her to pull through the pasture to get exercise. Pulling something with wheels on it doesn't do much good. It could be rigged up a little better to work in snow.
We didn't do that very long. Fancy hasn't pulled in the snow before and she was freaking out a little bit.
"I'm not sure what the problem was."
You were laughing when you took the pictures.
> That sled is meant for her to pull through the pasture to get exercise.
D@mn, you are a redneck. Up here in the city we just send our wives to the gym 😉
LOL, exactly where in those pictures is my wife pulling that sled?
Fortunately nobody asked who was in the sled. Such a comment could have resulted in serious injury. Is that was being inferred above about her "pulling it"?
You may be a redneck; but I assumed you were a gentleman and would, therefore, keep those photos to yourself
FWIW, bet y'all have never seen an engagement ring pull a sled. You have now. She told me she didn't want a ring, she wanted a horse, so she got one.
Looks like fun but the wrong rig. Using the tugs and singletree alone will not stop that sled, on a slick hard surface, from running up under the horses heels. That could start a bad wreck and could injure both the horse and driver. Had some experience with that when I was a kid. Get a different rig on that sled and change the harness to prevent such a thing from happening.
jud
Real good note there Jud, my daughter was into the big horses before she went in the Marines, so I was around them a bunch...I was at the NY state fair when a 6 horse hitch broke loose and headed out in to the crowd, my daughters crew were some of the folks that caught these gentle giants before they hit the mid way, tied together and scared to death runnin' full tilt!!!! That sled hits that horse in the hocks and it is off to the races, superman couldn't stop it!!!!
Good advice, but the snow was soft and the sled doesn't slide very easy in the snow. It's not meant for that. It's meant to be pulled on hard ground.
Lighting conditions (actually lack thereof) caused the shutter speed to be slower, and thus any movement in your hand tends to blur the picture.
Looks like fun though.........
