Shearing is once again behind us! This year, with a little
help from our friends, (okay, a LOT of help from our friends. Thanks Pat,
George and Chris!) we got everybody done in one weekend. There were a few minor
injuries, mostly to the people, that I'm happy to say everyone is recovering
from.
We sheared just in the nick of time. The day after we
finished, we had a major wind storm. The gust where so strong that it actually
blew a couple of bales of hay off the stack. I can just imagine the nightmare
shearing would have been in that kind of weather. We would have been chasing
fiber all the way to Casa Grande!
I meant to get some before and after pictures of the
alpacas, but I set my camera down and forgot all about it until we were
cleaning up on Sunday. So all you get is an after shot.
