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.

Mother goose

This was taken this June up in Pittsburg, New Hampshire, with a Nikon D80 - great camera. There is a lot of wildlife up there, moose in particular.  It is very close to the Canadian border - a good place to cool down.  Can you see why we want to live in New Hampshire eventually?  So many opportunities for camera (and sporting) buffs.

The landscape was drab until the sun started setting.  Taken last Sunday 08/09/09 between Pipe Creek and San Antonio.

My New Baby Alpaca

This is my new child - I did not take the picture - The Stevens of NH did. She was born yesterday 8/4/09.
