Saturday we went down to Tubac to an art festival. A few weeks ago Leigh Morrison came out to take pictures of the donkeys to paint for the festival. When we drove past where she was set up outside her studio painting, one of the first things we saw was Cisco on display, along with a lot of her other paintings. How exciting is that...........!!!!!!
We parked & came back to visit & look at all the paintings. She took this painting of Frijolita out of the display & gave it to me. As anyone that has been in my house knows, I'm about to run out of wall space, but managed to find a prominent place for it.
I took her head shots pictures of some of the donkeys, didn't really know if she would be able to use them or not, but she thought they were great, & said to watch her web-site in the coming weeks.
Today Dr. Megan came out to look at Jenny's foot. She agreed that it isn't doing as well as it was last time she was here. Too soft & mushy, where the abscess was, & has tracked up into the coronary band. She says we need to figure out some way to dry it out. I have been using Wonder Dust, which I don't like, it definitely isn't very drying. She recommended Kopertox or Thrush XX by Farnam, which you paint on with a brush. So we'll try that & see if it helps. She wasn't too worried about the proud flesh. The Wonder Dust has controlled it, but not got rid of it.
After the Vet left, we loaded Chantilly in the trailer & took off to deliver her to her new home. Got there & they already had Lily in her small pen, so Chantilly could get use to the "lay of the land", so to speak without having Lily in her face. They are going to keep Lily in over night & let her out in the morning. The 2 horses just looked at her like, "Ye gads, there's another one". Chantilly has been around horses before, so she just looked at them, went over, touched noses with one & went on about her business of checking everything out.
Lily actually acted like she was afraid of Chantilly. She looked at her & then tried to run around in the little pen, about 12' x 20'. Chantilly basically just ignored her, so I don't think there will be any fireworks when they get together tomorrow morning.

Checking out the new place

Poor Lily in her pen missing all the fun

Win or lose, I'm REALLY glad the election is OVER......!!!!
