Not a llama

CSB: I thought the alpaca farm was not far away. I was sure of it, so when I accidentally missed the turn into the hotel parking lot and kept going ... and going and going, I started to wonder if they even truly existed outside of my brain. I gave it fifteen miles, then couldn't in good conscience keep going. On the way back, I ran into the alpaca farm. Just about exactly the distance I thought it was - six miles. I'd already logged the miles, so...

There were only three up close in good photographable range. All others were out to pasture or behind ugly fencing. :(

I'm not even kidding. I drove away certain that I need to have an alpaca farm. Maybe with some goats too. I can make cheese and sweaters. *nods* Seriously, these things are so super cute. Because they're so super cute and I'm kind of envious of the farmer, I had to go see his little store - basically a room in his basement - and found a big bin of alpaca balls. The newest thing in dryer anti-static! Not kidding.

I bought three. Even if they don't work I feel good supporting anyone who has 160 alpacas, just because, and now can't wait to do laundry. LOL.
