The school started from the most basic things how to harness up a team and progressed to driving various sized teams with different implements. Y all probably remember that Justin has a pair of black Percherons. They re still colts, not quite two years old. They re not too big yet, about up to my shoulder. If Justin had his way, he d spend all his time with those horses, Jachin and Boaz.
People bring mules and horses from all over and there s a big show competition.
Susan, Justin, and I went up Friday afternoon for the mule auction, which was a bit disappointing. On Saturday the whole family went back to watch the mule pulling competition and the show. Mules compete in five or six classes for mule pulling. A pair of mules is hitched to a big metal sled. They have to pull it at least ten feet.
