Finished my shower, coffee and paying bills at the store and was heading home just now and when I opened the gate, one of my llamas bolted for the road. They have not done that in a long long time. I was able to wait until Pancho calmed down a bit and I got a lead and cornered him between the fence and the gate, got the lead around his neck and brought him back to the fold. Lots of cars slowed down to offer help - this will be all over Maple Falls by tonight. Joys of small town living.
BTW - the llamas are Pancho, Lefty and Waylon. I had Willie as well but he was very much the runt of the bunch and passed away three years ago. Going for sort of a country bad-boy theme here.
Heating up some left-over Costco meat loaf and mashed potatoes for dinner and then off to the water board meeting tonight.
