I have my doubts that two horses could move that load! Might of loaded it that big just for the photo op.
My Dad remembered loading logs with horses back in the 30s. (rolled on to the wagon using ramps with ropes going over the trailer) He said a local hauler had a pair of horses that were so well trained, the owner could have them easily move the log 1/2 an inch if needed.

It took a lot of man power to load those logs that high.

Judging the way that log hits the ground it is not light weight at all!

That is a stack of awesome looking board stock! I wish I had 1 or 2 of those to take to the sawmill!

It would have been one huge selfi, would the millennial's be prepared to stand for a five minute exposure on old photographic plates - I think not.

OMG, careful MejasonT, we now have a rabid and easily offended millennial lurking about!

In other news, I ran across this and thought of your signature which always gives this reader a chuckle. The other Continentals will like it too....

I do in fact have a time machine. but I dont let any body else mess with it.( I have trust issues,Ive seen a lot of history being made) look at the end of those logs..not quite right. nothing with that pic is quite right. it could of just been oh never mind. not worth the time it would take to go back and see.I have better things to see and doo.
