As much as it pains me to do this (I’ve always been one to do things myself whenever possible) I am in the humble position of asking for financial help as Dad and I come down to the final weeks of preparation before we embark on the first 1,000 miles of our Mexico-to Canada horse packing expedition.

I have created a GoFundMe campaign to solicit financial assistance from those fortunate souls out there who would love to come ride with us on our adventure, but who are precluded from doing so due to circumstances of life.

If you can’t join us in the ride, you can become part of it with your financial assistance.

Please be assured your funds will not go to buying pretty saddles and cool toys. I have already purchased all the gear and most of the supplies we will need with my own funds. In fact, Dad and I will both be riding saddles that are in the range of 50 years old. Where we will need help is in the department of financing our logistical help, fuel, veterinary exams, incidental veterinary care during the trip, farriery, horse feed while on the trip, and other incidentals that may occur.

The purchases of gear, horses, and other necessaries have nearly exhausted my personal funding. We could use your help.
