Monday Farm Photo #2: Who's A-fraid Of The Big Bad Creek? The Big Bad Creek?


That Would Be Our Donkeys

Back in February when the wet weather creek started flowing during all those snow and ice storms (this was before it flooded over), the donkeys literally camped out for three days up by The Shack (complaining loudly the entire time) rather than get their precious hooves wet crossing over to the barn. Begging, pleading, coaxing, and even a bucket full of treats dangled temptingly from the other side of the water didn't work. Fortunately they've gotten a little better since then. A little.

  2. I've enjoyed your photo's and your stories. Even tried some of your recipes (though I'm a bit more of a curry or kimchi person.) The donkeys remind me of our goats. They beg to go out to pasture, but when we have to cross a wet spot, I have to drag them kicking and screaming to get them where they want to be.

  3. I think donkeys are very adorable animals. =) They are less suave than horses perhaps, but a cute version of horses. =)

  4. Looking at all those rocks under and around the donkeys suddenly helps explain how you find so many heart rocks. That's a lot of rocks!

December 2015 update: Hi! For some reason I can't figure out, Blogger hasn't been letting me leave comments on my own blog (!) for the last several months, so I've been unable to respond to your comments and questions. My apologies for any inconvenience! You're always welcome to email me: farmgirlfare AT gmail DOT com.

I try my best to answer all questions, though sometimes it takes me a few days. And sometimes, I'm sorry to say, they fall through the cracks, and for that I sincerely apologize.
