Dianna Hauf August 17, 2007

After all is said and done at the end of the hard day, Dianna comes to unwind and relax by reading the comedy pages from Jeana's, Mel's, Tammy's and Kitty's and oh, yes, even Nikki's galleries! OH, and sometimes even Peaches! I smile, giggle, chuckle, laugh and all of the stress loosens and slips away! You are all so wonderful, did you know that? By the way, I think it is What do you get when you cross a horse and a donkey, right? If so, then what is a 'hinnie'? :) Just something to think about...hehehe

Jeana, this is my absolute favorite of your now! I adore horses and you did and awesome job capturing these beauties! Lovely warm tones, lighting is pleasant, the look on that face is priceless, and great composition and title! Just beautiful hon..... #4663348

Jeana Clark August 18, 2007

Good Morning Dianna!!!

What a very kind thing to say!!! We really have a great time....I'm glad that you like to stop in and check on us! You'll have to join in sometime!! But it feels great to know that we can make people smile, giggle, chuckle or laugh so hard their eyes are tearing up.

I knew all about the horse and donkey thing....just wanted people to get their encyclopedias out and look it up....AND for todays trivia question...."What is a hinnie?" It is.....the offspring of a male horse and a female donkey. A mule is the opposite....offspring of a male donkey and a female horse.

Thanks hon for your delightful visit here!!!! ALWAYS a joy sweetie♥!!

Take Care~Be Well~God Bless!!!
