It is the latest game here at The Lazy Vegan...RUNNING WITH THE DONKEYS!
Randy's been kicking up his heels with the boys lately in the evening...he'll run up to Paco & Luigi and kind-of chase them a bit. At first they were a bit confused by the behavior, but soon they picked up on the fact that it was a GAME (they really trust Randy!)...and soon enough they were snorting and running and bucking with Randy not far behind (as far as I could tell, Randy was not snorting). I took some videos but unfortuately none of them came out- but stay tuned for a "Running with the Donkeys" video sometime in the near blog future! In other excitement today, the boys spent a long time trying to get oak leaves off of the oak tree...they have pretty much taken the trees down to the bare bark where they can reach. No doubt if I were a donkey I'd be doing the same thing!

And the chase is ON!

Rounding the bend.

Luigi hides behind the tree.

Reassurance from their papa!

Fun & games.

Checking in with one another. They do this often during the day, and I always wonder what they're thinking!


Weegie nips Paco's back heel while walking to the "other" pasture.

It is great to have a donkey (two!) to lean on.

Going for the oak leaves...

Luigi stands by the redwood that he has eaten!

Paco succeeds in grabbing some leaves.



So much fun!


A neighbor drove by and smiled and waved during this...I'm sure they look ridiculous from the road. I probably look like a real dweeb with the camera...a real African Safari wanna-be photographer or something- in my own yard!



Beautiful Bravo and Beautiful Boulder.


Spry little Solo and Ball-Obsessed Toby.

Solo and his favorite toy...we call it "Purple Dog".
