So, I say "I'm back" as if I was somewhere great! Part of me thinks I should leave it as that, and add mystery to me, that layer of intrigue and glamour! But, at the core I am actually a realist and frankly sometimes too honest. That's me - honest, frank, loyal, a tad judgmental -- a Capricorn.
For a bit if interest, did you know that 'they' say the horoscopes are all wrong and that millions of people are 'not the sign they think they are' -gasp! Not me, I don't care what they think, I'm a Capricorn. (Now if you know anything about the descriptions of Capricorns, you find that statement funny!).
Anyway, though I did go to Amarillo, Texas and Shawnee, Oklahoma for two alpaca shows, I really didn't go anywhere. They were great fun and we are glad we attended them. But shows take a lot of time (& money) so we are taking a brief hiatus on them. I also had some time off (forced vacation) at the end of the year; that should have been great fun. But, the family brought home their own colds and shared liberally. So I managed to get some required graphics done for the 2011 GWAS showbook, but no fiber sorting. Sigh. That mountain of fiber has to get done! I just missed a discount special at Zeilinger Wool Co. but I think they have anther in Feb. But that's okay, I just found another processor that looks promising. That's when I reminded myself that there is often a 'silver lining' to every negative you experience if you remain open and flexible. Do you not appreciate your warm alpaca socks that much more because you just got in from the freezing cold in the barn?
Well, I digress, again. So, why was I suddenly inspired to write on the blog?
In the Colorado plains, our farm specializes in raising quality huacaya ("teddy bear")and suri ("dread locks") alpacas in all colors for show and fiber! Along with our alpacas, we offer our knowledge, great service, and alpaca products.
