Is the Smithee entourage towing that little trailer you showed us a few months ago? If so, what precautions must you take for a "wicked windstorm" to avoid getting on its side?

Well...

The answer is...

I dunno...

It's actually a decently heavy trailer, over 2,000 pounds, though we have not weighed it. It also has a very low center of gravity. We hit some decent winds in Montana yesterday and it handled just fine.

We are currently in Buffalo, WY (as I posted to Carolyn), and the wind is picking up.

I'll let you know how we "weather the storm."

All I can say is, I'm glad the hot weather has abated. Current temp is about 68, which is a lot better than 98 or 102.
