  2. Renee - this was taken about 17 years ago when I
    went with a group to visit St. Kitts and Nevis.
    The poor fellow was resting in the road ( it
    was sweltering ) but I guess when he saw all
    of us descending, he thought he should make
    an effort to get up!

  3. This picture conjures up a bunch of strange stories, all about a donkey who refuses to get up. I'm glad you explained.

  4. Poor mite. He would have been better off lying down somewhere cool.

  5. There was a donkey in the opera we saw last night at The Met and all I could wonder was who keeps a donkey in Manhattan? Afterwards I saw the truck he arrived on called "Tame Animals for Hire" I wonder what he thought of his moments on stage?

    Sorry I haven't been visiting lately ... busy getting ready for a trip and hopping around on one foot as I have a stress fracture in the other one.

  7. That is a very cute donkey. Bless it's heart and now that I know it was hot I really can see why he was resting.

  8. So cute. I've never seen my parents' pony resting this way — I guess he would never get up again! I'll talk to him about this donkey. :O)

  15. lakeviewer - this donkey really wasn't about to
    move! I can't remember if he actually made
    it all the way the way up!

    Valerie, I agree - I thought the grass would
    have been cooler - but there wasn't too much
    shade anywhere..and he was on a short
    tether.

    Pat, so your opera donkey is a star! I am sure
    someone advocates for very humane treat-
    ment. I can't believe you do so much
    running around with a stress fracture! Be
    careful!

    Bernie, I know what you mean! When I lived in
    GA, I was always wilted. I have never
    really liked the heat.

    Nana Trish is Living the Dream - growing up in
    the South, in my youth, I saw mules and
    farmers plowing in blazing sun...I never
    figured out how they could tolerate it.
    And seeing Scarlett O'Hara cinched up in a
    corset, wow! I'm glad those days are long
    gone.

    fullet - I really never saw horses or donkeys
    lying down. This was a new thing for me.

  16. Bhavesh - I was suprised to see this little
    donkey lying on the road...but I was even
    more amazed to see pictures of camels lying
    down by the dozens in India. I don't know
    why I thought they rested standing up!

    Icy - I wonder if it was a baby - he seemed more
    legs than anything.

    Inky - you are too hysterical.

    Glynis - I am so happy you visit my blog from
    Cypress! I would love to see your home
    someday when I travel in that part of
    the world.

    My Farmhouse Kitchen - thank you so much for
    becoming a follower. We do, indeed, seem
    to have a great deal in common. It must
    be wonderful living in San Luis Obispo.
    I would definitely miss San Francisco but
    that part of the CA coast is wonderful
    My son is talking of going back to grad
    school - I wish I would return to his
    alma mater, Cal Poly, but he's talking
    about San Diego!

    Donna - I think it's more the heat than fatigue!

    Shark - a caption contest...not a bad idea!
