Pokey on a roll..............

Even though Pokey wasn't feeling good when we visited Lacy, he couldn't resist doing the thing he loves most.........
Rolling in the dirt!!! The arena was really dry, we haven't had rain in quite some time, so....the dirt was calling to him.
After smelling and wondering around in a circle he finally starts to do down............

thank goodness for high speed photography! These are a series of pictures taken as he was rolling and rolling in the dirt..........he really made the dust fly!Ahhhhh, this is the life, dirt, lots and lots of soft dirt!!!!
Now this has got to be the all time shot!!! Doesn't he look like a little dog sleeping on his back? This of course was a split second shot because he was rolling back and forth with that little tail whipping the dirt and causing clouds of dust to fly...............but what a happy boy he was.
When Gilly rolls in the dirt he shakes himself off and a cloud of dust flies, but not Pokey.........I guess he wants to be a dirty little donkey!!!
