Hi, Eric!

I don’t live in Vancouver. I was visiting friends who have a hobby farm in the Maple Ridge area. One of the llamas was a 4-H project. These guys aren’t nasty, or at least not when I was there! 🙂

It is so weird where you find LLamas…I mean you automatically assume Peru but then you find them here in New Orleans or in Vancouver! I know a person who has them here in New Orleans, and they are mean little monsters!
I hope yours are more tame. How far out of Vancouver are you?

were the lamas well behaved? I have found some will spit and bite while others just want o follow you and be friends.

How lovely to have a farmstay at a place where you are actually friends with the owners. Somehow, I never thought of llamas as farm animals. And come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve ever stayed on a farm.

Some great photos of the farm. It must be so nice getting fresh eggs to eat every day

In reply to Jackie Smith. Hi Jackie! Yes, this is Sue's place. They've been there about a year.

Halifax is somewhere I have been meaning to visit, I hope you are enjoying the trip! My husband loves Vancouver but I had no idea it has such rural areas. I love your photos!

Ahh, love the rural life! Those lamas are so stately, they could be ready to walk the lama runway.
Almost every household in Jamaica has pigs, chickens, goats (we probably have more goats per capita than any country!), maybe a cow or two. They provide enough to feed the family and sometimes, to sell or trade with the neighbors. Mine was no exception. We also had horses when I was younger. Surprisingly enough, though, we didn’t grow tomatoes or carrots, but we had mint, orange, grapefruit, lime, mango, pepper, banana, and ackee trees, and sugar cane. Everything was always fresh and during mango season, each morning we’d wake up to mangoes under the trees.

Such farm life scenes are a source of joy for me. In this city all I get to see is traffic jam! 🙁
Happy #TPT!
Thank you for hosting. 🙂
