About 9 years ago my dear friend and neighbor on a nearby ranch stopped by to say hello and mentioned our neighbors down the road had Alpacas for sale. I asked her why she had not purchased one as she loved animals and rarely resisted the urge to bring home another animal to add to her “collection”. She laughed and we scooped up my daughter Lauren and headed back down the road to see thealpacas. The moment we saw the baby alpaca’s we were in love.
