Photos

These pictures were taken in late June of 2007, while working with Alec Johnston's camp on Folklore's Millar Western job.

I set up my trailer when I arrived then went out to view some blocks with Peggy, and when I got back to camp, I found that I had company in my bed!




Flying trees into a block.




It took me a while to figure out what these were. Apparently, they are Alpacas, which is a South American camelid. See wikipedia if you want to learn more.
