Winter's Almost Over!

The past few months have been kind of nice. The down side to cold Wisconsin winters is that hauling buckets of water around isn't too fun, especially when you have snow drifts to contend with. The up side? The poop pile is frozen solid, and can't be moved. So, we haven't had that much work to do with the alpacas - until things started thawing out last weekend. Ah well, life with alpacas isn't always rosy. Fortunately, our old tractor can do some of the work.

We've registered for our first show - the Great Midwest Alpaca Fest. It's in Madison the last weekend in April. We're showing Sweet Caroline and Hula Honey. Paul is the herdsire showcase coordinator, too. Stop by and see us if you come to the show! I'm really looking forward to it, and it's nice that our first show is so close to home. I am absolutely convinced that we'll forget something (or several somethings)!
