Mules are definitely one of God’s most interesting creations, LOL!
Beau bought Ithaca 20+ years ago to be a companion to his wife’s horse. Well, the horse died not to long into the mule/horse relationship and the mule stayed.
He’s really good for nothing other than general amusement. Beau has tried to saddle break him a few times, but Ithaca usually wins. He’s EXACTLY the type that would knock you off the saddle going under low branches and such, so maybe it’s a good thing that he won. ;)
Us: “I’M not getting on him! YOU get on him! I’M not getting on him! YOU get on him!” LOL!
Don’t know why but this city raised girl has always loved mules. There’s just something about them.
