Buddy and John

This is a picture of our new baby alpaca boy, Buddy.  I love this one of John and the little one bonding.  New Hampshire and Massachussetts were knee deep in snow and just beautiful for photography and skiers.  The folks who have to shovel it a lot aren't as enamored as I am.

Patches in her Halter

Today I finally got to meet my alpaca baby.  She did not take too kindly to being haltered - in fact, it was like a one alpaca rodeo.  (Sorta like a cat when you put on a collar, or they get their feet wet the first time.)  Patches has a long way to go before she grows into her ears and halter. What glorious weather there is here in New Hampshire right now- a balmy 76, and everything green as far as you can see.  I do look around at night going outside, not for car jackers, but for animals - this IS bear country!  Hope my darling has sent me the bear repellant I asked for.
