mapaca 2004 - Mary`s Alpaca

MAPACA 2004
We were ready to pack. Then we were ready to travel. Then we were ready to
set up…then ready to show, and that’s when the waiting began.
It’s been one month since this event, and only two things really stick out in my
memory. We won 6 blue ribbons and we waited between each and every class,
nervous not to miss our turn.
The year 2004 was another banner year for Mary's Alpaca; we went in and out in
"a blaze of glory." A picture being worth a thousand words I've decided to go
with the flow and highlight our band of warrior alpacas in pixels.

Notes: Caligula’s Accoyo Anushka
has the world’s longest neck and is by far the
most loving, smootcher alpaca I’ve ever
seen. If you’re a guy having
problems with female
companionship, you may
consider dating her.
MAGNUM is a two year old breeding
male…and he’s stunning. I hung a bag of his
fiber on his pen to save him the stress of
being handled.
EAGLE is so dense he was not a happy
trooper and preferred to nap and stretch his
front legs out straight enabling his belly more
contact with the cooler sod.
JUSTINIAN’S fleece
has a vibrant silvery sheen
which everyone comments
on…but only after they
comment on his strange “brolike” walk. Coco Pari is a
big fan hog and wore a sign
on her that read “will move
ONLY for food!” And she
meant it to the dismay of little
Principe Dorato who tried
his hardest not to step on her
while attempting to get any
part of his body nearer to the
breezes.
Without numerous fans in the
pens, I’d quit.
