Llamas on the Beach at Fort Fisher

First, Yankees on the beach, now this. The April 17th Wilmington (NC) Star News ran an article on the 12 llamas that competed in the 5th annual Southern States Llama Association's Llama Beach Rendezvous this past Saturday.

They came from as far away as Georgia and Tennessee. After riding the ferry from Southport to Fort Fisher, they toured Fort Fisher before having a relay race, limbo and other games on the beach, much to the enjoyment of those enjoying it.

Afterwards, they crossed back over the ferry and had cart pulling in Southport.

Liz and I often detour a bit on our way up to Twin Lakes, Wisconsin so we can go by a farm that has a llama (actually three last year, but just one now). He just stares back at us chewing his cud. There is just something about llamas.

Definitely something you don't usually see at the beach or pretty much anywhere.
