I haven't heard the hinge sounds until recently - prior to that it was more of a squeak, except for the period of time when Redford had perfectly mastered the sound of the UPS trunk honking.<br /><br />Donkeys must have a wide repertoire and can apply the appropriate sound to each situation!!billiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18187141867284800597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31257856.post-76291988783307599652010-02-03T14:08:51.424-05:002010-02-03T14:08:51.424-05:00Michelle, isn't it a wonderful sound when you ...Michelle, isn't it a wonderful sound when you hear your horse and know exactly who's talking?<br /><br />The squeaky hinges here are definitely smart fellows.billiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18187141867284800597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31257856.post-41390178488946224222010-02-03T14:07:57.327-05:002010-02-03T14:07:57.327-05:00Kate, the felines at our place seem to be very qui...Kate, the felines at our place seem to be very quiet at the barn - inside the house is another matter, though! :)billiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18187141867284800597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31257856.post-62012164246938454752010-02-03T14:07:14.123-05:002010-02-03T14:07:14.123-05:00Thank you, Arlene.
