Why do I drive donkeys rather than ride? I actually do both but driving gives me a thrill and a huge sense of personal satisfaction. More importantly driving is the most relaxing activity I do! When I am behind the team my heart soars with the eagles, the squawking geese, the diving hawks, it sings along with the songbirds perched on the electrical wires as we pass them by. It gives me a true sense of the changing seasons as I watch the tender green fall wheat poking out of the ground and eventually maturing into tall golden rods ready for harvest. You notice the little things when driving. It gives me an opportunity to stop and chat with the neighbors or take a passenger along for a great visit and a lasting memory. I dream of driving season when winter is raging or the spring rains are falling. It's knowing that for a short period every year I will be out there waving to people who pass me in their vehicles, I’m sure they are wishing it was them holding the lines of that fantastic looking pair of longears. Yes, it is me out there driving a team of mammoth donkeys in North Central Idaho on the spectacular Camas Prairie and enjoying a slower pace of life even if just for a brief moment in time.

Luc, Galahad… walk on boys, it's driving time! * Kristi*

A huge THANK YOU to the Acworth Community Charitable Trust for awarding SYALER a grant to build a much needed quarantine area!
We will now be able to protect our 'asses' from any contagions we bring into the shelter.

Fantastic News!!!!!!!! We have raised enough money to buy our much needed truck! A huge THANKYOU to those of you who made this possible. We are so grateful for your continued belief in the work SYALER is doing and for your ongoing support. However, we still have a monthly payment so help with that has been added to our wish list!
