Very odd she didn't show up...I think the Toronto Police Equine Unit would be very lucky to have you as a recruit - you would be an excellent ambassador at any public function. That's excellent news about the ark; we needed it the last few days. Torrential rain, high winds and frost at night aren't my idea of June weather.<br /><br />Billie, I'm so glad you had a parallel party for me at your place - it made me feel you were with us in spirit. You mention hot weather on your blog - I can only wonder what it's like to live in a climate where spring starts in February and summer bakes a donkey to the very core. Heaven.<br /><br />Buddy, you most certainly belonged at my party - there was all sorts of grass to eat and treats were distributed freely (not from herself, needless to say). Don't worry, Molly's heart belongs to you. She has a new fly veil from the silent auction and has ordered the woman to take her picture in it so you can admire her from afar.

It is hard to believe that it has bee...Hi Sheaffer,<br />It is hard to believe that it has been a week since your Garden Party. My mom and I had to wait until Uncle Ed and His Winsome Wife Wendy came to visit their horse, Dakota, this morning so we could check on the validity of some of the stories our human has been telling us about their trip to your party. You see, our human is prone to exaggeration, fiction and fabrication when dealing with all things "donkey". We should never have doubted her as all the stories she told us were the truth.<br />From all reports, everyone had a wonderful time and that you were a perfect host - talking to one and all and mingling with the crowds much as the Queen does at her garden parties although I would assume your party was a lot less stressful.<br /><br />My mom and I were thrilled to hear that our human was talking to the previous owner of a retired police horse that lived out his days with us. She came to your party with Smokey. Lancer was a very large lad and as I was a youngster at the time he certainly gave me something to look up to!!! We were often entertained with stories of his adventures on the streets of Toronto. He set such a good example to all the others at the barn that I feel I acquired some of my military bearing from him. I wonder if the Toronto Police Force would be interested in hiring me as a member of their equine unit???<br /><br />One final note:Mr Completecare is just finishing up work on the ark. He has decided to add en suite bathrooms to each stall. I think he has been watching too many TV shows!!!! Anyway I hope he will be finished by the time the fall rains start.<br /><br />Take care,<br /><br />Your fan, Willycompletecarehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02554502192212049345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7769158267288053176.post-34242927644215962732009-05-31T18:52:14.453-07:002009-05-31T18:52:14.453-07:00BumbleVee, I believe you are right - this is the f...BumbleVee, I believe you are right - this is the first time they have exhibited such bizarre behaviour. Typical. It wasn't affection, just a sugar craving. I should know them better by now...Mother Board has not yet returned and we are awaiting a health report most anxiously. There was so much talk swirling around Tuffy that it almost seemed you were there - you would have been bombarded with questions and asked about your plans for a donkey version. You'll just have to attend next year!<br /><br />Gale, speaking of being with us next year, may I put you and Mr. Gale on the list? Herself will take you to meet the baker who has apparently never heard of a donkey celebrating a birthday...More pictures are on the way - we hope soon.<br /><br />Mr. Gale, Jack is very firm on the subject of my going away - it can't be allowed to happen, according to him. Maybe if I put a stuffed likeness of myself in my room he won't notice. I've been know to remain motionless for long periods of time. That baker is on my list of badly brought up humans with unfortunate social skills.

I hope that Mr Jack realizes what a hero you really are and gets over you being away to promote such a worthwhile effort..spend some time with him and he will be just fine with it all I am sure. Maybe the erroneous and odiferous baker can come up with an apology cake for next year.. what a HEEL !! Bet he gets a piece of coal for HIS birthday....smile..<br />Mr Galerobert5721https://www.blogger.com/profile/03859169776790967092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7769158267288053176.post-49977945014560209502009-05-30T05:19:13.646-07:002009-05-30T05:19:13.646-07:00So happy you were able to borrow an "electronic wr...So happy you were able to borrow an "electronic writing device" and give us all the details, Sheaffer.<br /><br />I love the baker story, and I imagine your woman will have to provide the head baker with details on all future orders from that establishment. If your official photographer got a photo of you and your cakes, perhaps they'll hang it in the bakery. Autographed, of course!<br /><br />You know there can never be too many photos, of course. It's great to put faces to names -- humans AND equine! <br /><br />How I wish I could have been there to meet everyone and to help.Galehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03057130676408193394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7769158267288053176.post-78637947370400474912009-05-28T21:39:22.505-07:002009-05-28T21:39:22.505-07:00Ya know.......

I bet a lot of humans with fingers sticky from cake were petting your fur.... maybe that's why Molly and Doc were "washing" you...they were just licking the icing !!<br /><br />oh, boy... mother board... just another name for cash cow if you ask me... along with everything else. Nothing lasts anymore does it? ... .... planned obsolescence <br />.... that's what it is.<br /><br />Sounds like the party was a great success and from your descriptions...I almost felt like I was there.
