We've now saddled 2 of the donkeys and ridden them. Well, one of us led them while the other sat on her. We didn't actually put a bridle on them and steer them. Still, very exciting for us. We haven't sat on the boy yet. Maybe tomorrow. He's a sweetie too but maybe a little more nervous. I really feel like we can work with these guys and teach them (or they'll teach us) to pull, ride and plow. I'm not sure I've ever met such accomodating and sweet animals. I belong to a Yahoo mammoth group (internet) and today someone posted this sweet video I thought I'd share. It's about a working donkey and his owner. If you have 5 or 6 minutes give it a watch.

Someone else on this Yahoo group mentioned how a person took their donkey to the farmer's market with an ice chest on a cart and sold ice cream. They were a huge hit because everyone loved the donkey. I know I would buy something from a cart at a farmer's market pulled by a donkey.
Off topic: Awhile back I talked about strange responses I got to Craigslist ads. I also get lots of interesting spam commments on my blog and thought I'd share one with you.

You get the most interesting spam! I would buy something just because of a donkey as well. Looking forward to reading about all the donkey adventures in your future!
