Memorial Day weekend found us in Fargo for a wedding reception followed by my brother's Golden Anniversary Celebration in SD. So Lars, Melissa, Mai-Evy and Sella joined us at The Little House on the Prairie. Mai-Evy's response to the house as she ran around "This is amazing!"
A local farmer has a menagerie that includes longhorn cattle, donkeys and camels mixed in with his horses and cattle. His farm is a bit out of town but he has a small pasture at the edge of town. That pasture currently contains three donkeys, two horses and a camel.
Lars and Mai-Evy hiked over to the pasture to see the animals. The critters came to the fence and stretched out their necks. That gave Lars the idea of feeding them carrots so they got a handful of carrots from the house and returned to the pasture. The carrots were a big hit with the camel and donkeys feeding out of Mai-Evy's hand. When the carrots were gone Mai-Evy picked sweet clover and kept feeding the animals.
Unfortunately I did not have my camera but I had taken a few pictures of the critters on a previous trip which I will include.
