Posting from Phoenix

Glad you all enjoyed my goal fails!  I'm down in Phoenix after an epic trip with a truck and trailer. I drove from Boise to saltlakecity on Saturday and then on Sunday headed up to Park City to pick up two ponies and head south.  Let's just say that a four horse head to head goose neck and dually truck don't go well with narrow plowed icy roads.  Seriously, after two hours and several years off my life I was back on the road.  Also it was a toasty 5 degrees.  Imagine backing around a turn and down a hill on roads so icy the rig is just sliding and the breaks do nothing.  At least the scenery was beautiful.  The rest of the drive was uneventful, thank goodness.

  4. So I assume you're at Turf Paradise being in Phoenix. In which case, if you happen to stumble upon the barn of Robertino Diodoro, I would probably forever love you if you could creep on a horse named Causeithertz in his barn. At the very least I would not be mad at you. ;)
