The night we arrived at the Hills Health Ranch, we spent a bunch of time exploring the beautiful acreage. We met Annie, a newly born (only three days old!) donkey along with the other 4 or 5 donkeys on the ranch. Little Annie was the cutest thing, and a nice touch of reality on this ranch.
Just before dinner, we had a chance to see some of the horses on the ranch. About 12 or 13 of them had broken out of the fenced in area of the ranch and onto the ski hill just behind the main lodge. We took pictures of them from the big balcony just off the 1871 dining room. It was pretty cool to see the diversity of the horses, and funny they believed the ‘grass was greener’ on that particular side of the fence!
