January 2010
Greetings one and all...
Here it is Janaury already. Surprisingly enough there is snow on the ground still. It has been an exceptionally cold winter and we have had more snow this season than any other years since we moved to Virginia in 1990. Unfortunately for Chuck and I we have apparently become acclimated to Virginia living and are now somewhat bothered by the cold. I sure wish we hadn't teased our children about their not being New Englander's any longer...
The crias are all thriving and happy. We can tell the thriving part by the scale. The happy part is shown to us every day when we watch them run and play. What a delight they are. I am looking forward to the day we decide to take the cria coats off. Generally they wouldn't be wearing thenm any longer but we decided with temps in the thirties it wouldn't hurt to leave them on. Maybe next week.
I goit a notice via email and again on FB that friends of ours have opened up their internet farm store. Barbara and Doug Johnson of Timberwood Farm in Orange County VA raise goats, sheep and chickens. They have Nigerian Dwarf and Angora goats as well. Anyway, like any good friend I checked out the link to their store when it crossed my path... You can check it out too!

Great service too - I already got my order!
Show season is ramping up. First one for me is the Carolina Alpaca Celebration in February. Next up will be the Palmetto Alpaca Classic in March and in April it will be the California Classic.
Guess that's it for today!
