BIG changes for the Chandler family

The kids were so excited the day we brought the truck home.

Our family brand turned out nice

Trav drew up how he wanted his name to look and did a very nice job. The fella that did the vinyl lettering also did a wonderful job.



Trav & his dream come true.


Wow oh wow have we did a big life change. I'll start from the beginning.....LOL! Trav and i had been thinking allot about our future in the last few months and well I guess you could say we did something about it.
We decided that working for someone else was only bettering them and NOT us. The ranch job was a great one believe me. We were just not heading anywhere in it. We did allot of thinking and laying out numbers in our heads. Well what we came up with was a business of our own called HR BAR Trucking. We have left our ranch job and bought a semi truck. We do not have a trailer yet but that is down the road. What we will do is this.
Travis will haul cattle for Dennis Burger out of Missoula Montana hauling his trailer ( Cattle Trailer). We have moved from the ranch and are now living only six mile down the road from where we were before. A nice big house that sits on 5.24 acres that we are hoping in the next year to buy. We would like to get the truck payed off then work on a mortgage. Don't want to get to ahead of ourselves just yet.
Like i said Travis will be hauling cattle and will be doing the fall run and spring runs. In the off season he will use a flatbed trailer and haul hay for the local farmers here where we live. When he is hauling cattle he will be gone for 3 weeks at a time. Sacrifice we have to make to get to where we are going. I will sure hate being without him and it will be hard but i know i can do it.
He leaves to start the trucking Sunday i believe. It will be scary as i know anyone that starts there own business has been. We are thinking positive of course and pray everyday it will be right for us. Please everyone pray for my husband's safety out on the long road.
