Conquerall Mills Horse/Ox Pull---Medium weight team class

June 21, 2008 Conquerall Mills, NS Horse teams are usually more exciting to watch than single horses and this day was no exception. The 'old fullers' in attendance liked what they saw:



It wasn't all work for the guys who stack the weights on the sled:



Finally the teams started pulling, action!:





And then, 'the kid' arrived. Pretty impressive and inspiring to see this young boy drive ~2,800 lbs of horse, pulling ~7,000 lbs. of weight.

To all the kids out there, put down your 360/PS3/Wii controllers, go join 4-H and drive a team of horses. Talk about a real thrill!:







Stay tuned for the review of the variety supper that followed the horse pull (hint, it involves LOTS of ground beef)
