Cuteness Overload

I wasn’t sure what to call this post.  I can’t think of a million ways to say “Awwwwww” until I see these little sweeties.  They live on Shady Bend (or Shady Deal or it’s something Shady) Road on the east end of Grand Island. If you’ve ever had the opportunity to drive down that road and have two functioning eyes and the ability to spot anything that is worth taking the time to look at, you’ve seen these guys.  There are three big (by big I mean adult, I don’t think any of them come up to my waist) donkeys or burros or asses or whatever you call them, and then the two jennies *right?* each have a baby.  Aren’t they CUTE???  On my way to Hastings a couple weeks ago I took that road, and these babies were chasing around the pasture.  The moms were standing there like “That’s not MY kid” and the dad came over to the fence and told me to go away.  They were a long ways off, and I had my little camera. Knowing they live there, I brought along the good camera on my way to the state fairgrounds in Grand Island.  They were much closer to the road today.  I wish they were higher up, and there isn’t much room to pull off to get out and take pictures, but the road isn’t that busy so maybe next weekend I’ll take the time to drive out and walk through the ditch to get more shots. Dad came over and told me to leave again. He gets right up to the fence and says, “ur AAAAAAAAHerrrr AAAAAAAAAAH *wheeze* errrr…. AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!”  He’s awful cute, too.  Very protective.  Everyone there is cute. Adorable.  Smagooshy. You get the idea.
