Thanks Darlene - sorry they were late. Spring is a very busy time of year for all of us. RCL - nice yarn - I have about 60 bags of alpaca fleece in my basement and no time to process and spin. I will try to post more often. Bonnie AlpacaChick

Just want to say MERRY CHRISTMAS to all of you!!! Cooked a big ham dinner for my three youngest kids and their girlfriends and now they are gone and it is very peaceful! Hopefully I will be checking in more often after Saturday - our big family Christmas at my Mom's (and sister's) house. Good...

Good morning all! Got the plastic up on the barn with lots of help from my grandson. He is 17 and really would rather have spent his Saturday doing something else I am sure. He did a great job, so hopefully it won't blow off this year. Cleaned the bunnies, fed alpacas, shovelled poop, then...

Hi - Darlene - I have thought about some kind of website- I will have to check it out now that the weather is getting colder. I just need about 10 more hours a day to do all the stuff I would like to do. Winning the lottery would be great and I could give up my day job and just do all the fun...
