Always something

It's always something... sounds like something Roseann Roseanna Danna would say! Now you probably have an inkling of how old I am too! ;)
The rain wouldn't go away so we had to cancel our shearing festivities for tonight. We're bummed. But we rescheduled for a couple weeks from now. However, our shearers informed us (being new to the alpaca thing) that we need to get a fan for our alpacas to survive the summer heat. So this means... digging a trench out to the barns and running electric in our barns so we can run a fan for them. I wanted electric anyway to have light in the winter so I can see to feed and maintain good clean care.
Good news is, a neighboring farmer wanted to sell her alpaca and we made a deal for him. So tonight we will have another alpaca arriving to our small hobby farm. We are definitely excited. She is downsizing her farm and wanted him to go to a good home. I'm glad she chose us.
Think of all the fiber we will have to spin! My young spinners can't wait.
Until the next 'something'...
