Yesterday was overcast all day which is what today is looking like too. The fire sure felt good last night and I would imagine we'll have another one tonight.
If we have a couple of sunshine days it will bring the flies out and we'll probably put on masks, but it's late enough in the season the chances are slim to none. Whoopee........!!! Of course that means going thru the masks we have to see how many will be salvageable for next year and decide how many to order from Colorful Equine. Renee has made masks for me for years, I just tell her how many I need and she ships them down all ready for next spring. I'm sure the donkeys enjoy not having to wear them.

Here is a video Linda sent of "after hour" exercise. Either look quick or look at it again, otherwise it goes by pretty quick.
She also sent pictures of the new managers that hired on.
They don't look like they are going to be very hard workers, do they? LOL Have no idea where Lola and Lennon were.
We are going into Tuscon today to pick up our great grandson Hunter after school. This will be the 1st time he's ever stayed with us, so we'll see how it goes. We had a busy week-end planned before we knew he was coming out, so he might not ever want to come again............LOL I'm sure it will be interesting for him, I'm pretty sure it will be a lot different than what he is use to. I hope he has fun. I'm anxious to see his school work, if his Dad doesn't forget to bring it after school.
The donkeys are all doing good, enjoying the cooler weather. The readjusting of the herd is finally going well, and everyone has dropped back into their position in the herd. Well, Joe has dropped back as much as he's going to, haven't heard any squabbling between him and Boaz lately, but he still picks on Don and Bill, just making sure they know he's above them in the pecking order. Don will squabble with him, but Bill just looks at him like he's a pest.......!!! LOL
Tyler is coming Sunday to work on Penny, Gus, and Gigi. They've all been doing really good with their shoes, hopefully with the new improved stock he'll be able to work on them without some much drama on their part and easier on his back. I don't know how farriers/trimmers backs hold up, they get in such uncomfortable positions and some of the equine, think it's allowed to literally lean or lay on this person that is holding up one of their 4 feet. The rest of the donkeys are pretty good about standing and most of them don't even need a halter on. Gigi and Penny need a halter and always will I guess, they seem to think the farrier is here to torture them and they are going to do their best to make him pay a price for the privilege........!!! LOL
