Luxury Llama Transport
Aug 21st 2008RuralWriterFarm Critters
I’ve been chatting back and forth via email with a nice lady in Milan, Ohio, who wants some wool. When I visited her farm’s website, Windy Hollow Farm, I was enchanted to see pictures of two of my favorite critters - Belgian Draft Horses, and llamas with their cute little crias.
Well, it seems yesterday Holly and her daughter, Hannah, took a funny big “dog” to one of the metro parks for a nature hike.
Hannah and her HUGE "dog" in the van.
Yes, the “dog” they took on a nature walk is in fact one large llama!
Here Hannah is getting the handsome fellow out of the van…
Here's one large llama on his way out of the van!
Almost there!
And here they are, all ready to set out on their nature walk.
Hannah and one handsome llama, all ready to go!
Holly said, “The park ranger flipped when we got there. She asked us to put him back in the van so she could take a picture , because NO ONE would believe her !”
Next they need to do the drive-through bit at McDonalds or somewhere, and see what kind of reaction they’d get when they hand out the food and see a llama looking back at them!
Everyone needs a llama in their van!

Amy Weishuhnon 21 Aug 2008 at 10:36 pm 3Ha ha! My very first thought at seeing the photos was “Nothing good can come of this!” How cute to see a llama in a minivan. It’s certainly not something you see every day. Oh yes, a trip through the McDonald’s drive-thru is a MUST!!!

I hope if they ever do the drive-thru bit they send me pictures!
ceeceeon 22 Aug 2008 at 9:31 am 5I just want to know how they convinced the llama to get into such a small space!
Rural Writeron 22 Aug 2008 at 9:58 am 6Good question! I’ll ask Holly. When she lets me know, I’ll post it!
Kimmyon 23 Aug 2008 at 8:19 am 7Oh my gosh how in the world did they do that?? lol I wonder what a Llama would order at the Mickey D’s drive-thru…..
Rural Writeron 23 Aug 2008 at 9:09 am 8Okay ceecee & Kimmy, I asked Holly how they got the llama in their van. She said, “he jumped right in ……but then we work with them alot and he trusts us …..PLUS the van has AC ! :o) ”
I think the AC would be enough to do it for me! I’d never make a good pioneer, cause I hate HOT weather and love my AC too much!
Oh, and I think a llama would order a Premium Southwest salad at Mickey D’s!!!
