Blogger Novice

Thanks to the guys at White Mountain Alpacas another technological marvel is happening . . . we are bloggers. We hope to use this medium for a variety of functions:

1. to share tax and accounting information beneficial to all breeders
2. to keep you up to date on what is happening at Alpacas at Tucker Creek so those of you who have critters here will be a tad more connected with your wonderful animals.
3. to share our calendar of events with you . . . like our 2007 shearing scheduled for May 1st and 2nd . . . it is still in the planning stages . . . but we hope many of you will be able to join us.
4. to post photos as our beautiful crias are born . . . so we can all share in the joy of seeing another generation of Studmaster babies.
5. to provide a forum for many of the questions crossing our desks . . . you might all be interested in the answers.

So, if there is something you would like to know about . . . feel free to send the question our way.

P.S. Rik, Jason & Tom . . . keep track of our blogging while in this toddler stage . . . just a tad of a learning curve for this old CPA.
