Re: [RC] [RC] Southwest (Creede) Colorado - Nat Nelson

<<Does that law mean that truckers hauling livestock
can't stop in rest areas? Now that I'm thinking about
it, I don't remember ever seeing any in rest areas.>>

The reason you don't see truckers hauling livestock in
rest areas is that there is always a truck stop close
by that is more convient and "trucker freindly".

In short of an emergancy I never stop at rest stops! I
always stop at the truck stops. I can kill more than
two birds with one stone by doing so. . . Truck stops
are so much more convenient than rest stops - gas,
food, water for my horse, coffee for me, restrooms and
shopping. Plus in the event I need to get a quick nap,
I feel much safer at the truck stop then at a rest
stop.

I rarely take my horse out of the trailer on the way
to an endurance ride. Simply stopping and allowing
them to stand helps. I also rig a water bucket and hay
net in the trailer so my horse has access to feed and
water during the trip.
