thanks for the replys.We have all of the paper work in order and the hay lined up in durango. My vet also said to get them out of the trailer every 6-8 hrs and walk em around a little and water em. It will be a learning experience for us all. we are planning on staying for 2 weeks so we wont have to push the horses and more oppertunities. what sucks is i tore up my shoulder 6 weeks ago requiring surgery and will only be calling/trout fishing/cooking. still some good scouting for next year and a good vacation!!!!!!
