Donkey

Mud Valley Memories

Donkey

There's a reason Eeyore is a donkey. Donkeys can look very sad. This donkey was our neighbor down the road in Mud Valley. He is looking sad because his brand-new baby has been put in another pen with mama. Amish donkeys can be excellent cart-pullers for smaller folks. I myself got to drive a pony cart once thanks to some very kind neighbors. It was great fun. Don't worry, the donkey family was soon reunited.

Oh, I would like to ride in the pony cart too! This donkey looks so pettable. Nice play on the shadows.

This donkey does look sad, and I'm sure he was very happy when he got back in with his new baby.

I like the shadows too. Makes the donkey zebra-ish....
