Behind our barn, somewhere between a disorganized pile of T-posts and a few old tractor tires, sat a beat-up utility trailer that needed some work. Honestly, that trailer had been laying around our ranch for longer than I care to remember. The boards were warped, the lights stopped working and it definitely wasn’t ready for any highway travel. So, it sat there season after season, randomly used to haul some farm equipment from one spot to another.
