It's Almost Show Time!

Our show entries are going so well this year! It's very encouraging - we had been worried that gas prices were going to hurt registrations but it looks as though we will be good to go after all. The only downside is that my time is very scarce. I will get over that though! :-)

Things are progressing very well around our farm. We have the hay shed addition completed and have picked up our year's supply of hay. Chuck has been outside working on the tractor today mowing along the fence lines. We had flooding yeaterday with the rains from Hanna but it is just gorgeous out there today.

I had some very good news this past week. I have been hired by CALPACA to be show superintendent for their spring show. I am already not looking forward to the flight out but I will get over it. April will be a very busy month next year with the Palmetto Alpaca Classic the first weekend, shearing the third weekend and the California Classic the fourth weekend.

In late October or November we have four females and crias coming up from SC to stay with us. We will be breeding them to our boys and keeping them here until they have their crias. By then we really need to be able to get the boys moved out to our acreage cleared in the front. We have all that lumber drying for their shelter. Hopefully it will be ready when we are!

I guess that's it for this session. Time to do some real work...

Until the next time!
