So how's Gilbert different from LA?

Well, as I write, we can hear a sheep in our next-door neighbor's yard. And a donkey.

And when we looked out our side window, we saw a horse.


It's Old MacDonald on a 5,000 square-foot lot. I wonder how long before they get a strongly-worded letter from the HOA.

UPDATE: After additional reconnaissance (e.g., looking out of other windows), we counted two sheep, two burros, FIVE goats, and the horse. And the HOA was worried that our "insufficiently canopied" tree would drive down housing values.

What?! This is insanity. I need to come over so I can look though your windows too. :)

Maybe they're opening a petting zoo...?

holy zoology. at least you won't have to make the long drive to the Phoenix Zoo anymore. Are they, um, from a third world country? or just hicks?
