On a lighter note.... our tomatoes are ripening in full force now. I made up our first batch of Tomato & Onion Salad this morning. I'm sure we'll have LOTS of it before the summer's over!
We made our first "donkey sale" today! Debbie, the first donkey born in our pasture, moved to a new home about two miles up the road. Recently we sold six goats to a friend to clear the weeds in his horse pasture. Shortly after he got them, two were killed by either dogs or coyotes. So.... Debbie was purchased to guard the remaining goats. I asked my husband what she thought of the horses at her new home (she's only been around cows, goats and other donkeys) and he said she immediately brayed at them. Poor girl, she probably thought they were donkeys, too. I know she'll be treated like a queen in her new home, but I hope she'll be happy away from her donkey family here. (this picture was taken a day or two after she was born almost three years ago)
How many of you actually go to Google's home page rather than using the Google tool bar? I always use the home page so I can see if they're featuring a "special" Google logo for the day. In addition to major U.S. holidays, they also celebrate famous birthdays and holidays from other countries/cultures. My brother sent me a link where you can see all the Google logos that have been used in the past.

I will check it out, the Google site.
Awwwwwwww Debbie!!!
I'm never surprised at what the Government is doing anymore.
If I thought about it all for too long I'd never trust the government for ANYTHING again!
I always go to the home page. I love Google's quiet tributes. Thank you for the logos!!!!

PS The donkeys are adorable.
Kelly, we are probably better off NOT knowing a lot of what the govt. is doing.
I have always been fascinated by the CIA and all the covert stuff. I always wonder when I meet someone new if he/she is in fact in witness protection program. Could you imagine completely changing your identity and becoming a new person? Amazing.
I think you are right about the government. I bet we would all be shocked to find out other things they have done in the past and may be doing now. I agree that smaller government is better but not hopeful for that happening any time soon.
The donkeys are soooo cute!! Your pond is beautiful and looks more like a lake to me.
