Another Super Saturday at The Lazy Vegan! The donkeys were ready to play early in the morning and for the rest of the day. Paco had fun running alongside Toby. It was a good thing that the fence was between them, because at one point he swiftly turned and gave a dramatic back kick- which definitely would have hurt Toby! Since rain is returning, it was great to have one more dry day to work and play. I went to the hardware store in search of a feather duster to clean the new big t.v. and stand with...and I had one of those "vegan awareness" moments when I couldn't find a feather duster and had to ask for help- and the sales clerk showed me where they were and told me my options: a duster made of turkey feathers or ostrich feathers- and that's when it hit me: feather dusters made of real feathers aren't vegan!! DUH! So I asked if they carried any non-feather dusters, and luckily they did. Then when I got home I goggled some info about how feathers are obtained for feather dusters and down comforters, etc.- and it was yet another example of how poor animals are exploited for human use. So- no feather dusters made of real feathers for The Lazy Vegan- I just hadn't really thought about it until I went to purchase one!

What a Day for Work and Play at The Lazy Vegan!
We took advantage of the sunshine today to work and play at The Lazy Vegan- and so did the animals (they played!). While the foreman continued with the bathroom project, I loaded the truck with all the remodel garbage for the dump. During this, the donkeys spent the time lounging and taking dust baths while the pups napped inside and Boulder slept in his special bed by the computer. Everyone got out to run around at lunch time. What a crazy zoo!
Paco watches Luigi take a dust bath. He does look pretty silly!
For some reason Paco wasn't into a dust bath today.
The foreman contemplates his next construction move- while relaxing with a glass of wine.
After running around like a mad pup, Bravo catches his breath on the terrace.
Taking advantage of the water cooler!

The dogs didn't even seem to notice the donkeys in the pasture today.
A ball and a funny looking toy creature.
Bravo was ruthless, as usual.

An Even Better Beetle at The Lazy Vegan!
It is hard to imagine my Beetle getting even better- but today it did with a volkswagen roof rack! I went to the dealership to have it put on and am glad I did (v.s. having the foreman put it on...it took them two hours!). My Beetle looks quite sporty and ready to explore the world! Now I just need a new bike, a new kayak and a new surfboard (for the foreman) to haul...but one thing at a time!
Bravo didn't seem to notice that the Beetle looked different.
O.K., blog reader, bear with me...there are a lot of Beetle photos here!
The roof rack goes nicely with the donkey fencing, too.
I love the VW logo on the rack!

It was the perfect day to take Beetle photos with all the pretty clouds...my Beetle looks like a little cloud!
Boulder just walked straight past the Beetle. He just isn't that impressed, I guess.
The donkeys were pretty interested, however.
