Bull shipping. Really.

Story from Rob about Tom Johnson who did a job a lot of people wouldn’t want to do.

He hitched a sturdy trailer to his pickup and, when his neighbors’ cows needed transport, he transported him. 

Yup, Rob said, Tom Johnson was known as the biggest bull shipper in Westmoreland.

(Pronounced Wesmalan, FYI.)
