A few weeks ago, the girls, Mom and myself went to visit my sister at her ranch… it was her birthday.  At The Dragon Fly Ranch, otherwise known as Crystal Springs Alpacas, there’s always an adventure to be had. Whether it’s feeding the baby birds (Pat is a breeder of eclectus parrots), to riding her new birthday present…the mule.  

 She has quite a few alpacas and specializes in Suri alpacas. While we were there, Mom and I picked up some fleece for the fiber show In Athens.  These two look like Thing1 and Thing 2.      The ranch is like paradise, huge grandaddy oaks, palm trees and water fountains.  More like an Alpaca Resort, but then again it’s not too far from Disney! This is her first baby born on the ranch, Champagne.    

I should also mention Pat’s other toys…..her first spinning wheel and loom.  She was still assembling…so wasn’t able to play with those.   Next Visit!

And all put away….

And more….

Received my shipment of Lorna’s the other day. 

Bullfrogs and Butterflies, Swirl DK and Shepherd Sock and Worsted.  This is gorgeous stuff!
