KNITTING LAKESIDE

Animal Farm

Wednesday May 31, 2006

We spent Mother’s Day picking up our new family!!!! A friend drove his truck and horse trailer over with us to Springfield, Kentucky. It was a long trip and could only get the Mini Donkey, three ewes, three rams and three lambs in.
They suggested not putting the Alpaca and Llama in with them. So another trip a week later in my grandson’s truck with fence rack on the back we went to pick up the other two of our family.


Next phase we found the perfect piece of property West of Mt Vernon. It has a pole barn on it and plenty of room for our friends. With a lot of work putting up the fencing by my son-in-law Robert

and my son-in-law Rich, grandson Christopher,
granddaughter Sarah and my daughter Lori, we were able to take the Alpaca and Llama straight to their new home.
On Sunday, May 28th, Lori and Christopher went to pick up the three ewes and three lambs to bring them to their new home from their temporary home. It was quite an adventure for them. Had some help from friends Dale and Kim.
Next they went today to pick up the rams. It was a very rough day, more of an adventure. Next we will go tomorrow to pick up the mini burro and a ram (he is the Shetland in the middle) that is running around the nearby farms, but that is another story!!!


Its all coming together!!!
