We had a great crowd in spite of some rainy weather on Saturday which slowed things down. Our young boy Shooter had the best time of anyone. He fell in love with the people who came and could not get enough of them. In spite of the fact that alpacas are by nature very shy Shooter decided that he wanted to live a more social life He ran up to almost everyone who came up to his pen and even let the small children rub his neck and pet him. I was surprised to say the least having never really seen this side of him. He was voted most popular for the day.
The spinner, Heidi was a hit. She did such a nice job explaining what she was doing to adults and children alike. She even taught me to spin which is a challenge for anyone.
These animals can not help but draw you in. They are peaceful, graceful and have a wonderful nature about them. Most people were surprised since they had never seen one up close.
