hello everyone! the MAY/JUN transport trip was completed this week - I was on both coasts twice during this trip - I delivered 20 Golden Guernsey bottle babies from WA to IN with no problems - Murphy decided I needed a new transmission in remote Miles City MT - I had the old transmission scheduled for a routine rebuild in June (only 70,000 miles since last rebuild) but Murphy thought otherwise - I sure would like to get rid of this Murphy!
the summer trip planning is moving forward rapidly - I may be making a TX to GA/FL short loop trip very soon - anyone with animals needing to go east or west along the I-10/20 corridors needs to contact me immediately! for the later summer trip (JUL/AUG/SEP) I have reservations taking me to the east coast and New England - I am looking for reservations to make it a coast to coast trip - I often get questions about transporting during the hot months - I have had no problems with my aluminum trailer - three years ago on the day Las Vegas had an official high temp of 128 degrees I was making the Needles to Barstow trip fully loaded on both decks with sheep and goats during the mid afternoon heat - none of the animals showed any stress during the trip - the only consolation I made to the heat was to keep moving at 45 mph and to take a route that put me on top of a 4000 ft. pass at sunset so I could turn broadside to the wind and let the animals rest until after the sunset cool down I always need pick up city/state, drop off city/state, and a brief description of the animals in every email please - if there are timing restrictions or complications (export) please inform me of your needs and schedules I do not monitor the groups closely so please reply directly to my private email address at rkee...@realtime.net payment is due on delivery - I can take cash, check, MO, and PayPal there is no contract other than your word via email -- questions?
