The title is perfect for this haiku! I’ve never seen mules painted like this – I always thought they were a brown-gray, but these are so unusual. I love their markings. No wonder there’s a debate. They need to know who got into the paint closet.
Yes, a great one, as well. I remember as a teenager the Far Side comic inspired many a giggle as I let the boys in my homeroom class try and explain the comic’s intended joke. Little did they know I understood perfectly. Just enjoyed watching them smile.
Guess who has the nice big two volume in slipcase Far Side collection? Girly-girl and I peruse it periodically. Neat to watch as she gets more jokes each time. We also have all of the Calvin and Hobbs books. Go figure right?
I love the picture, Audrey. “Nothing has changed” seems to apply to too many things these days. It makes my head hurt a little. I hope you’re starting a great week.
I know, Dan. Rough start to the week already, and all over this country. Many hurting. Much love to you. My week has been productive already. This is always a good thing. Hope you’ve been well.
Hi, Debbie. There’s a number of wild mules/donkeys in the Rockies. I thought the same thing as you…what could they be eating, but they find plenty my dad says. Who won.. good question. Smiles.

A problem that is always with us, more so with some of our brothers and sisters, and sadly highlighted in the past few weeks. 😦

Aren’t they beautiful? A paint, this sort. To drive up on them in Colorado was super inspiring. Thank you for your kindness, Shari ♡

Thank you. C. Good to see you.
I concur. Has me thinking they are a few folks’ favorites up there by Twin Lakes. Who wouldn’t want to see them stop by?
