Another back rode ride

What's this????? a mountain goat!
Jeremy and Jamie invited us over to where they are house/horse/alpaca sitting for dinner.  A great drive along the Colorado River on winding dirt roads to the ranch.  We watch them feed the livestock and Jamie had prepared an exceptional lasagna dinner for us.  This would be our last night to see the folks.

Alpaca's - a descended from the guanaco (humpless camels).  They were domesticated from the guanaco's 5,000 years ago by the Incas (people that lived in the high snow capped Andes Mtns. of South America).  Alpaca's use to be used as pack animals but now they are famous for there shaggy fur for which clothes are made out of.
