Winter Won't Let Go

Another snow dump today, probably six inches all told.  Just when we thought spring was around the corner.


Taken about 6:00 p.m., lending that bluish hue.

It was a given donkeys would be huddled in the barn.  Go out in that white stuff while it's still falling??  You gotta be kidding.  Particularly when they know fresh bedding will magically appear along with plenty of dinner.



The kicker is much of the snow had melted and we were all getting a little giddy with the thought of spring sunshine.


I took this shot to prove the donkeys are still on their mission of total wood destruction.  It was taken just four days ago.  No snow!

Rule of thumb when working with equines is always end on a positive note.  The Golden Book of  Blogging requires the same.   Here's my "aah" moment.  Love it when I can get an orchid to rebloom.

  1. Your donkeys are so very cute, I can see why you love them. I have several orchids and yes, when they rebloom it is a treat.

    1. Terra, do you have any tips for reblooming? I feel like when mine do, it's happenstance.

  2. The donks look so cosy in their lovely stall, with room service to go with it, who would want to go out in that snow??!! The orchid is really beautiful. We have got a rare bit of sunshine here this morning in Cheshire. It has seriously not stopped raining for what feels like months. Lots of villages are flooded as rivers all over are bursting their banks. There is just nowhere for the rain to go now, everywhere waterlogged and muddy. Oh where is Spring??
