3. Thank you, catbyte! I really enjoyed that. I think his name, Irvin, adds to his charm.

When we visited my in- laws, I would take my walks along a canal road near their home. When I came to one little farm, there was a large enclosure with a horse, 2 goats and a donkey. As soon as I came into view, the donkey would start braying and come over to the fence. I would pet him and talk to him and he would talk back. He was so friendly. The horse and goats ignored it all. Made those walks special. I was so disappointed one visit when they had closed over the canal and closed the road along side.
