Good morning Jim, Troy, Cory.
I like that idea Jim. LOL
We did get everything in the trailer. Not all laid out like it was in my head but still all in there no problem so all is good there. Now I need to make a makeshift tailgate, fix the plug on the trailer (suddenly no running lights-grrr), fit a few more items in there, then wrap it all up like a burrito.

Sounds like you about got it Jay. Then you just gotta hope the ol Taurus is up for the task of pulling the trailer that far. Have to get us a pic of it all hooked up before you go.

Yeah a test run is always a good thing.
That's good Jay. Haven't been super busy here but it has been steady so I will take that.

So as usual everything takes linger than it should. I need to go get more bungee cords in the morning and finish strapping everything down. Almost ready to go. Still need to make that test run too in the morning.

Looks good Jay! One thing though you might want to figure out fenders or some sort of flaps for those tires. I know in MN its illegal to run an open tire like that on a trailer. Have to either have a fender or wheel flaps. I am guessing some of the states you will be going through will have some sort of laws about it as well. Not saying you will get pulled over for it but its possible.
