Donkey on the run!

    
 
     A few years ago now a Trail Riding group found our neck of the woods!  Every year since then they have a scheduled weekend that they (100's of them) come and enjoy a ride in our beautiful area.

    There is a donkey named Bo that lives in the pasture with our cows.  Bo belongs to my brother.  Because brother has a surplus of donkeys at his home,  brother decided that Bo should live here with us!  Except for the plug that he chewed off of our porch we get along fairly well.  Sister says he gets on her porch too, making her beautiful home look like a Spanish mission! 

     Back to the trail ride...Bo apparently got very excited when he saw them coming down the road.  According to the "trail riding cowboys"  Bo JUMPED our fence!   He then proceeded to run in and out of the riders. What to do, what to do?  The big Boss on the ride along with his buddies, chased him and roped him.  They put him back into our pasture where he ran wildly and brayed loudly.  He did some more crazy stuff before he finally settled back down to pasture life. 

     I think next year I'll put up a little sign for the trail riders.  "Throw the wild donkey carrots and he will calm down".   Or just maybe the trail riders enjoyed the excitement of a "wild donkey" running amongst them!

     Blessings from the pasture with the crazy donkey!
