Santa Claus is coming to the Frosty Ridge Alpaca Farm!

Just around the corner from us is a very cool alpaca farm called Frosty Ridge Alpacas. When our grandkids were here this summer we stopped over there and the kids got to feed alpacas. It was a "meet and greet" type of event and fun.

This past week I learned that even Santa Claus likes to stop by to feed the alpacas, so I'm sending this out to invite everyone with children, or who is still a child at heart, to come out on December 10 or 17 and see Santa Claus. I do not know if he will have his reindeer, but I do know that lots of alpaca there will be happy to see Santa and children can enjoy Santa's visit as well... 

The people who own Frosty Ridge are Loni (rhymes with Tony) and Horst Blumerich. If you live in Solway you may already know Horst. He's the fellow with the thick German accent who manages the Recycle Center by the Munger Fire Station and Town Hall. 

In addition to the farm they have a gift shop where they sell yarn, hats, scarves, sweaters ad other alpaca related products. Loni will share the benefits of alpaca over other kinds of fabric, and very likely offer you some hot chocolate.

Sometime soon I will tell the story of how Frosty Ridge Alpacas came to be, but for now, I simply want to help get the word out that Santa Claus is coming!

Frosty Ridge is a stone's throw from Hermantown on Maple Grove Road. It's very easy to get here. If you come through Proctor, you can drive out Highway 2. When you get to the Midway Road light, go north (right) till you come to the roundabout. Go around the circle and head west. You will pass three roads (Susie and I live on the Sandberg Road that spears off to the left) and when you go up that next hill start to slow and the the alpaca farm entrance will be on your right. There are signs on both sides of the road, so you shouldn't have a problem.  If you pass the Caribou Lake Road you went too far.
