Not long ago we went to a nearby town to watch a parade. This wasn't your typical parade, no marching bands, no clowns, no tossing candy to the crowds, no fancy floats. Nope. This parade was all about MULES.
We lined the streets will lots of local type folks and watched as mule after mule after mule walked by.
Some pulling old mule wagons.
Most working as a mule team.
A few pony mules pulling mule carts.
To mix it up a bit...a sheep herding dog herding sheep down the middle of the street. Then, back to more mules. I had never seen so many mules before. It was easy to spot the mules from the horses. Those big ears gave it away every time. Now I have been educated on mules. Not horses. Not donkeys. But mules.
