"It's poop again"! Thumbs up and a wink and a nod to Cortney on this post.

I hope I make Cortney proud...Today on this rig move I saw and passed by several different animals. Some of these experiences were very normal...expected. Some weren't. I saw goat farms, deer in apple orchards, cattle, wild turkeys, donkeys, llamas, raccoons, and horses. Horses are everywhere but usually in pastures. Today I turned a corner and one was in the middle of the road. I didn't get a picture of it then but on my return trip I got proof that he was there."It's poop again"!


I took a close up pic of this guy because of his stripes. They refer to this donkey as a biblical donkey.


I wonder if Cortney ever remembers seeing a dead cat on the road when we were traveling and commenting on "dragging it for a walk".
This raccoon is now ready...







This guys is grooming for his photo op.












This is Moody Girl....a girl I pilot with. You can see the rig we're moving in the back ground. You can also see a glimpse of my beautiful truck.







I really like how this guy looks. They are very friendly. The kids would love them.








See Darci, I told you they were real close to my truck. They can make a lot of noise. Anywhooo...It was a good day. Love to everyone!

"Don't put it out with your boots Ted!" That is a funny title to this post...I'm sure you did make Cortney very proud! You should have heard Colton say "oh poop!" when he looked at that pic. It was really cute in his little boy voice! And the one that really got me was when he saw the pic of the raccoon: he said, "oh no, owie." And his bottom lip stuck out about a foot! He looked quite sad...but it's okay, I told him it feels better now! All is well! He really liked all the pics of the animals, thank you! Love you! And I remember Cortney saying she was going to drag the "sleeping" cat for a walk! That was funny!

To the first picture Caleb said "oh, it's dirty!" Yes, son it's very dirty but I'm not telling you what it is! Ha! Ha! Those are some very photogenic (is that spelled right?) animals. I feel sorry for the racoon though, looks like he had a bad day. I do remember Cortney saying something about dragging a cat for a walk! So funny. Great pictures.

Yes, it was late at night or very early in the morning depending on your perspective: I was waiting for Don to get home from work and Bubba Blake was up 'til 11pm due to teething and Colton stayed up with me...he just likes to hang out with Mama! He crashed on the couch as I was leaving my comment on your blog! So nothing to worry over, though I did think at the time that you most likely would when you saw the time! Us mothers think alike! Love you!

Great post! The kids love looking at all of the animals even if some of them are dead ones. I wouldn't be surprised if Kailey would actually drag one for a walk if you let her. She loves her animals. So, was that you that hit that racoon? I would be surprised since I know how how love racoons. It almost makes me laugh because it just looks like classic roadkill. Almost like, it is faking dead with its mouth hanging open like that and everything. -K-, and I also have to say that those jack asses are sure friendly. I mean, I've never seen jack asses so loving and want attention. Who knew that jack asses could be so cute and cudley. Okay, did I get to use that word enough? What? It really means donkey! tee hee. I just have to make sure that Jake doesn't walk back in now and start reading over my shoulder. Anyway, I am really glad to see that your ankle is looking better. I hope that the swelling goes down soon. Alright I better get these kids in bed. Love you, talk to you soon.
