How lucky can we get? A photographer from Ashland enjoys coming out here and spend time with the alpacas. Last year, the day after Christmas, it snowed heavily.
This is when the 2022 Christmas card got created!
Kimaree enjoyed the story "Twas the night before Christmas"

Ok - every visitor loves the alpacas, especially Kimaree, but then - if they are lucky - there's Mr. Toad.

No matter their color (gray to reddish brown to yellow or green) they have a white stripe down their back."
