Nelly, my dil's donkey that I tried to donkey-sit a few weeks ago, had an outing this week. She went to the County Fair on school day. She was a little nervous, and brayed if "mom" got out of sight, but was very sweet and gentle with all the children. They loved her long, soft ears and interesting markings. People who owned donkeys or used to own donkeys or wanted to own donkeys couldn't resist coming up to say hello to Nelly.
