Oklahoma and Alpacas

We cut across Oklahoma pretty quickly, trying to get out of rough weather and the crazy winds.

We did take the time to enjoy an overnight stay at an alpaca farm with a pair of Great Pyrenees as company.  Nala had her first meeting with the alpacas and had hard time understanding why these “big dogs” didn’t want to play. The alpacas were shy, but curious creatures, with silly hairdos. The Pyrenees were big cuddly bears of a dog that couldn’t get enough love.

Our host took us around the farm and let me feed some of the ‘paca babies that were brave enough to come to a stranger for food. He educated us on their hair quality and explained a bit about beautiful yarns that are spun from their hair. I bought some hand knitted alpaca open finger/mitten gloves (made from his yarn).  And the next couple of days I got the chance to enjoy just how warm and comfy those gloves are. Oklahoma has so much more things of interest, things that called to us; but it was time for us to move on. However, we will be back for more.

Thank you for checking in on our adventure. See you in Arkansas next week.
