You ain't seen nothing if you havent seen the annual running of the llamas
in my hometown. That is rural Wisconsin at its finest. Imagine a town closing off its main street to allow this festivity. Imagine the locals gathering to watch, beer in hand, kids in tow, llamas to the right and left. Llama wool being spun into yarn. Fried chicken sold from a tent. Grown people with llama puppets... Try that in NYC! Diana -- Vote this November (U.S.A.) "Su/Cutworks" wrote in message ... Carla wrote: And let's not forget "play chicken****".

I want a llama. They spit. Accurately. -Su ***** My turn to tell a story! When I was six my folks took me to the Philadelphia Zoo. My Dad was a big time camera nut and loved to fiddle with light meters and all that stuff. He would get so engrossed in that, that many times he'd miss the best shots. LOL So there we are, Mom, Dad, and me, in the Children's Zoo section, close to the llama pen. Dad's messing with the camera as a llama steps up to him. He's oblivious as the llama leans forward and lips the end of his tie (Dad ALWAYS wore a white shirt and tie...I never ever saw him in anything that didn't button down). Mom and I are staring in amazement as this critter slowly lips and laps its way up Dad's necktie, right until its head jerks back, taking Dad with it. Dad drops his meter, yells "Hey, cut that out!!!" and proceeds to pull a slimy, llama-spit encrusted tie out of the critter's mouth. Mom was laughing so hard she was breathless as Dad glares at her accusingly. "Why didn't you warn me?" She just shook her head helplessly and laughed. Poor Daddy, standing there with his light meter dangling from his wrist, struggling to wipe his tie clean with a handkerchief. To this day that's the first thing I think of when someone mentions llamas. KarenK |

I used to go this llama farm regularly to pet, feed and photograph them. I had
a fringed leather jacket and the llamas loved to chew on the fringe, it kept them occupied so I could take pictures close up. I usually would end up laughing and giggling so much I couldn't take pictures. They never spit on me. Only the little kids, LOL. ..Stephanie. Gotta Question? Search RCB: http://tinyurl.com/5wm36 |
