Geocache Description:

There is no redeeming value to this cache except the scenic drive that you will take on your way to make the grab.  The cache is hidden in plain sight and you can pull your car right up to GZ. 

I love driving and exploring old, long and windy country roads. I find that I don’t have to travel hundreds of miles to find the kind of beauty I seek, that which motivates and reminds me to be grateful for what I have…today was no exception. Even though I was on a mission when I set out today to scout locations for future hides, I did not anticipate finding a place for this type of hide. 
 
After I placed the cache I continued my drive scanning both sides of the road wondering what the title should be when I noticed I was passing a Llama Farm…this reminded me of a charming series of children’s books I see on a weekly basis while I volunteer at my local library.
 
Llamas are camelids, can grow to as much as 6 ft in height and weigh between 300-450 lbs.  The lifespan of a llama could be as long as 30 years depending on how well they are taken care of.  Llamas are social animals, live in herds, and are intelligent with the ability to learn simple tasks. Their wool is soft and lanolin-free.
 
Baby llamas are called cria and female or “mama” llamas are called dams.  Dams carry their growing cria for 350 days!!!  When the cria is born the mama is not able to lick or wash them off because their tongues do not reach outside their mouths more than half an inch, so they hum and nuzzle their newborns to begin the bonding process. 
 
That’s all I’ve got for you…if you have children, grandchildren, nieces or nephews check out the “llama, llama” series by Anna Dewdney.  The illustrations are fun and who doesn’t enjoy a good rhyme now and then.

*NOTE:
Please tuck the pocket flap back in on the back of the cache, it is there to help prevent too much moisture from getting to the log.  Thank you.

Congratulations to PDXJim for the FTF!!!!
