    Snap, how did you beat that combination? I had one round of pneumonia a couple of years ago and generous use of oregano oil got rid of it. This time, I have been fighting since September and keep going back and forth.

    There was nothing to do for the flu because I was out of the window for Tamiflu. I'm taking antibiotics, decongestants, and expectorants for the coughing and wheezing.

    Mine probably do own me to some extent...which is why I had to go shopping for more half and half today. A gallon a week is getting to be a bit out of control...they need to kick the habit.

    How did you get started with Alpacas Dave? That's certainly a unique animal.

    About a year and a half ago, I met a lady who is a couple of years younger than me who was operating a booth at the covered bridge festival. We ended up talking about all kinds of things, including her mom's alpacas, which is the first introduction I had to them. Curiosity got to me, and I ended up bringing a dozen of them home, and now the mom in the aforementioned family does my shearing, takes me along for the occasional alpaca adventure, and is my go-to person when I get in trouble or just worried/concerned/scared. When I found my alpacas, it turned out that the first herd I looked at was the one, and found the sellers and their two little granddaughters to be great folks. We still keep in touch. They were happy to find a buyer to take all of them and understand basic animal raising practices, unlike a couple of knuckleheads who wanted to buy just one when they are not psychologically capable of being without at least one other alpaca. So, in the end, I ended up with not only alpacas but some really great friends.
