Thank you for the hint about using a horse trailer to store water tanks in! My best friend and I inherited a huge horse property last summer, and I swear there is a 70-100 gallon water tank for every horse on the place (10 of them – and a donk!). Since they are all at pasture all of this extra hardware is just not necessary. Included in the equipment are two stock trailers that are standing idle (since we brought our own with us); I will be getting the tractor out today and doing some reorganizing!
