Texas brunch – part one
On the day after the Texas Seestor’s wedding to Trainwreck, we all headed out to Trainwreck’s parents’ place for a scrumptious brunch. Trainwreck’s mom really outdid herself baking and cooking and preparing a fabulous array of food. It was just terrific!
We took a lot of pictures that day, and because so many of the ones that I like are of animals or don’t show people’s faces, I can post them here publicly. Consequently, I’m going to highlight a few each day.
This was the first that I’d ever been out to his parents’ land/farm/ranchette. So, part of the joy of visiting was getting to see the sheep, dogs, and the guard llama that I’d heard so much about.
Yes, you heard me right, the Guard LLama.
See, he guards the sheep and protects them from coyotes or other predators.
He is rather oddly proportioned, but appears to be very smart, and is always watching.
“I am watching you.”
The sheep were being baaaaaaaaaa shful. But were lured out with hay.
That might be the sheep that provides the prize-winning wool. Trainwreck would probably know.

Yay, I love animal pictures! Very nice.
A Guard Llama, now that’s pretty cool.
Can’t wait to see more.
Amber says:
So does this mean the Macho Llama man had a huge ass mound to stand on as well?
I love llamas because of their funky look.
I love the sheep, too. He looks good. Or should I say, “Baaaaahd”.
Trainwreck says:
Are referring to the llama or myself regarding the “oddly proportioned”?
The llama (“Jitterbug”) came with the property when my parents bought it. The sheep pictured is “Telly”, I think, and was bottle-fed as a lamb, which has made him quite a bit more brazen. The REALLY good wool-sheep passed on a year or so ago. Can’t remember which name goes with which sheep….there is/was “Rosie” and “Muggsie”.
