Shine


Now's your chance, longears, to shoulder your way into the spotlight! The official 2011 Brays of Our Lives calendar is slowly transitioning from Dream to Plan, but we need you!

I know, 12 months of Fenway sounds pretty delicious . . . but wouldn't it be great to see the Pants and Sheaffers of the world, as well? I need your favorite and most flattering high-resolution images via email at fenway (at) braysofourlives (dot) com. Photos selected for inclusion will earn a byline with mention of your blog, business, or rescue, as well as 2-for-1 pricing . . . that is, buy one, get one free! Cost will be reasonable, as we hope merely to cover printing and shipping costs.

(Sorry, horses, no room for you this time . . . maybe next year we'll have the budget for a "Friends of Fenway" edition!)

Humans, do you know a perfect Mr. December or Miss October? Send them my way, but please be sure to obtain photographer and owner permission.

Thanks, and ears to you!

Fenway

  2. Hey Fenway, you need to meet the Shy Monster. She doesn't have a blog because she's to busy getting into trouble. So her human has to recount her tales of terror on the farm. I'm sure the Shy Monster would love be be your miss October.

Here are the Cloud Dog's X-Rays

Here, for your edification, are the X-rays of dear Paisley's leg. There is, apparently, no new break (since his Monday siezure) but there is, of course, a great deal of abnormality caused by years of living with a shortened ulna. His pronounced lameness, the vet says, may temporarily improve. Unlike me, Fenway Bartholomule, poor cloud dog can't expect much in the way of a full recovery.   Not having the $$$$ for surgery to fuse the joint, we are working on making some sort of rigid splint to support the limb and prevent further degeneration. That is, the humans (with their space-age material inventions and their opposable thumbs) are working on making a splint; I am working on giving cloud dog brayful looks of support and encouragement every time he totters into the yard to relieve himself. As always, he fears me (me?!) and keeps his distance.  Ears to you,  Fenway

Vegan Spring Rolls

I, Fenway Bartholomule, am a vegan: of course I only eat plants, not people! My human is too, so I'm sharing my blog with her today so that she can participate in the 2014 Virtual Vegan Potluck !

A List

FarmWife has a to-do list, and "Ride the Mule" is sadly absent. The best thing on the list is "Muck out the Paddock," during which time I can enjoy the pleasure of her delightful company. The worst thing on the list is "clean the house," which is sure to take hours and hours which would be better spent rubbing my splendiferous ears. There's hardly even time for blogging on my transcriptionist's agenda, so I'll keep this short.  Here, before I go, is the view from FarmWife's bedroom window at various levels of zoom: Your friend, Fenway

Stripey schemes and meadow dreams

As you may recall, I am the proud resident of a very charming little barn—some might call it a shed—which shelters me in the winter from rain, and in the summer from sun. This spring Farmwife and Farmhusband decided it should be painted. Green, suggested Farmwife. Red, suggested Farmhusband.  Teal, suggested Farmwife.  Yellow, suggested Farmhusband.  Stripey, suggested Farmwife? She was thinking of a retro Chevy squarebody (a quick Google search will show you what I mean), but didn't quite know how to make that practical on boards and battons.  Farmhusband, who is a wizard, not only figured how how the stripes ought to go, but also arranged for the painting to be done. What I ended up with, almost in the blink of an eye, is the brightest, most cheerful, stripeavaganza of a barn. Even the neighbors are fond of it! In front of the barn is a vast expanse of grass which I am not allowed to sample on account of my laminitis. Not only is Farmwife opposed to letting me eat...
