Our oldest daughter (I helped) was getting the equines ready to load up
(for a wee adventure). This is T’Ata, ready to head into the horse trailer.
When LaVerne decided she wasn’t having anything to do with THAT!
No, sir, No Way!
“That’s okay,” Shannon hollered at her—you can stay home, and T’Ata and Glory can go.
HOME!!! Stay HOME!!! Not me! She replied and ran right in. Ready to put her halter on and Load Right Up!
What a mule! She is lots of fun, if in a frustrating way. Shannon understands her, so it all works out. 🙂
She is really a pretty mule. We figure she is about 27 years old, going by her papers. Her face is turning white, but her spirit is still strong.
She is retired now. Living the good life!.

It sounds as if we need to refer to Shannon as the “Mule Whisperer”.

What caught my eye in the photos and story was the wonderful clouds in the sky. A bonus with the horses and mule.
