Re: RC: Trlr Ties

[Mickie Newnam <akela@peoplepc.com>]

Anie,
I tie to the trailer all the time.  I like picketing but not
all the places have pickets.  Every once in a while I'll
have a horse tied there that annoys me, but I'm used to the
normal sounds/motions and will only really notice if there's
something out of the ordinary.  However, I do take a few
precautions so that the horses don't keep me (or the people
camped next to me) awake.  I only use rubber buckets since
the plastic ones rattle and make noise.  and any place I
have a snap holding something to the trailer (buckets, flake
bag, etc.) I wrap the metal with electrical tape so it's
quiet.  Occasionally I'll still have to take the grain
bucket down overnight in case the horse gets bored with
eating hay and decides to see if he can get me to give him
something else, but other than that I sleep very well.
