Dec. '11

Howdy folks and welcome to another month gone by with the Texas Camel Corps.

December's business activities with our family's camels were primarily Christmas related, providing animals for Live Nativity scenes all across Texas (and a small bit of Arkansas!).

The better part of January I'll be in Egypt, Jordan and Sinai guiding a tour for intrepid traveler Jimmy Ly.

Here's to a great new year to you and yours...

Thanks as always for your interest in our family's camels.

Irenie, Ibrahim and Richard in front of the Texarkana, Texas/Arkansas Post Office after a Christmas parade. This post office is unique in that it straddles Stateline Avenue, placing it in two different states!

The cheapest camel diaper ever! Employed at the request of the Texarkana Christmas parade committee. Net laundry bag, elastic and carabiner clips, voila!
