GROOMING DAY.......!!!

Actually this is a good week for the donkeys.  Christa and 2 of her friends came out this morning and groomed whoever wanted to be groomed.  They were all in their pens, so it was rather easy to make sure everyone got a chance to get groomed, if they wanted to be.  I didn't even have them try with Gigi and Rosie, they are still enough of an unknown that I don't trust them with other people.  

I couldn't get over how nice Rusty the white mule looked.  He really enjoys being groomed and he is about the only one that has started to shed, so it really made a difference with him.  He even got his ears cleaned which, I forgot to tell them what a pain he can be about his ears.  He had big globs of dirty ear wax hanging out of his ears, and they are all gone.  

Thursday a Mom and her son are coming out to groom.  Most of the donkeys really enjoy grooming and I wish we had more time to groom them, but we don't.  So I hope they enjoy it while they can.  

This is a good reason to not be reading a list in your hand, while walking in a parking lot filled with vehicles.  I was in WalMart parking lot a couple of days ago, organizing my list as I walked towards the door.   I didn't realize there was a pick-up parked with a piece of old raggedy plywood sticking up out of the bed.  I guess I'm lucky it wasn't a couple of inches higher, or it might have been really nasty.  As it is, I look like I was on the wrong end of a cat fight.
