Keeping the Kubota busy!

Our dear Durango- we miss you!
We are finally HOME! After years of planning, hard work and lots of determination, we have finally gotten moved back home to Colorado. Our wonderful 35 acre ranch in Hesperus, CO is now home to our herd of 25 +/- quality alpacas. While there is still a TON of work to do and at times, it is a bit overwhelming, we could not be happier. We have a wonderful barn, a great house, very nice alpaca pens and meeting great new neighbors!
As we are enjoying a very nice and mild fall here in southwest Colorado we know that winter is just around the corner. Yes, that will bring new challenges as we have been out of Colorado winters for 18 years. Time to shop for BOGS and Carharts! Thankfully we have our warm alpaca socks, gloves and hats!
Work is never ending but at times it does not seem like work. We are doing what we have dreamed about with having our alpaca ranch here in Colorado. Building shelters, setting up more pens, etc is time consuming but all to a good end.
Our own herd is about 25 strong and we now are also agisting for 3 other ranches. We appreciate the fact that other alpaca owners trust their herds to our care. We will treat them as our own with care and attention.
One sad note is that our beloved golden retreiver, Durango, passed to doggy heaven only 5 short days after we got moved. He was ill but bravely made the trip with us and actually got a little extra energy to trot through the alpaca pens and also enjoy being in Colorado. RIP Durango. We miss you buddy!
