The Best Donkey I Never Really Knew

Sometimes you meet people or animals on your travels that you wished you had the time to get to know better.  If you actually lived there, they would be the ones you would make sure to take the time to say “hi” to, to visit, to pet through the fence everyday on your way by.  This little donkey is one of those.  He hangs out near the boats at Lord Brandon’s Cottage on the Gap of Dunloe tour in Ireland.  He seemed so happy to visit with us, and he really was as furry as he looks.

I hope this little guy is still doing well; he really brightened our day!  Enjoy your Saturday.  Slainte, Lisa

Turning Over a New Leaf

My yard is full of new leaves…some of them are just a week or two old, full of greenness and newness.  Looking around, I see green, green, and more green, and with all that color, I see hope and new life and renewal.  They remind me that in Christ I am a new creation; the old has passed, the new has come.  (2 Cor. 5:17)  God is all about new beginnings…”do-overs”….Thank goodness for that; I tend to need a lot of them in my life.  🙂  Enjoy the green today!  Slainte, Lisa
