I'm Still Doing What I Wanted to do When I Was 12

  • Summary

  • Jim and Maggie discuss logging with horses (which he started doing as a child, and went into business in right after high school), haymaking, setting high expectations for your animal-powered operation, working stallions, his equipment choices for the farm and log landing, and much more. As we discuss in the episode, Jim might be part of the minority in the draft power world at this point – he grew up within the culture of working animals. I think his no-nonsense attitude and incomparable work ethic are not unrelated to that. Jim’s horses are seriously strong and well behaved, and it’s not by accident. Be sure to stay to the end for a very solid piece of advice for anyone working with or hoping to work with draft horses.

    We address a couple of vocabulary words in the beginning of the episode, but here's one more: scoot. Scoots are large sleds made for pulling loads of logs.
