No, this isn’t another post about Motor Man’s wardrobe. Although, judging by the title, I can see where you would think so.
In the midst of this cold, dreary winter, I’ve been looking back at photos taken last summer and found these.
When Donna, my niece, and her son, Connor, were visiting, we went riding out on the country roads one day. Connor, being 7 years old, was becoming a bit tired of hearing his mom and aunt talk. And talk. And talk. He wanted to do something FUN.
And then…..we happened to see a sign for an alpaca farm. This is less than 10 miles from where I live, but since I don’t normally travel in that direction, I didn’t know it was there.
I wanted to take this precious little white baby alpaca home with me. It looks like a little stuffed animal.
Is it my imagination or does it appear that these two are sneering at me? Especially that one on the right….
I would love to know what this one was thinking as he stared at me.
To add to the excitement of finding this farm, a baby alpaca had just been born. I warned you about the cuteness factor.
Mama alpaca was not moving far from this little one.
Connor thought this was much more fun than listening to his mom and aunt talk. And talk. And talk.
At least when we left the alpaca farm, we had something new – and fun – to talk about.
Something tells me we’ll be traveling in the direction of the alpaca farm again during Donna and Connor’s next visit.
these days of mine 
And I can see why Connor thought this was more fun! I’m sure you’re not the only one that didn’t know the alpaca farm is there. It was a surprise to me but then I don’t get out that much….waiting for warm weather!
Wow, gorgeous pictures! What a fun day.
Thanks to your question Dianna, I went back and added that Linda & I will be reunited at the reunion and singing once again. Can’t wait!
I had forgotten about your “side-trip” to the alpaca farm … It’s always cool when something like that just pops up … unexpected, different, and special!
When traveling to Franklin I always look out for the farm. The animals are precious but then again my favorite animal is the llama and that is a close cousin to alpacas. Great photos.
Soooo cute! Now I want one 🙂
Wonderful pictures! Those babies are just gorgeous! A baby anything-kitten, alpaca, human- always gives me such HOPE! Thank you for sharing! Meghan
Oh my! They are darling, aren’t they? I’ve never seen a baby. SO when are you getting one?
Very cute! They do look quite intelligent, don’t they?
That was a great day, but then everyday during our visits are special.
The animals were wondeful but I think the friendliness and enthusiastic attitude of the owner we met that day made it so much more enjoyable.
Soooooooo cute! I’ll have to get directions from you so Judy & I can take Trevor and Hilary
Love them ,love them, love them. How cute is that. We saw some at the State Fair last year.
