New Residents Have Moved Into The Ghost Town...

Hey guys! This week a few new residents moved into Cerro Gordo. Their arrival is big news to me, and I even had to build a new home for them! You should be seeing more of them in the coming months and years...
Thank you all so much for your support and subscribing! All the notes, messages, encouragement really means the world to me.
I post more photos from around town on my Instagram: / brentwunderwood

Just a tiny suggestion - the goats need something to climb on too. Goats love to climb. My suggestion is old big tractor or heavy machinery tires stacked like 1, then 2, then 3, then 2 on the other side, and then 1 - you can fill them with dirt to keep them very secure. I have a friend with a homestead in Idaho who has 8 alpacas and they also used the tire dirt fill-in and mix in all the alpaca and goat poop - it makes the best compost ever - if you can even grow any kind of veggies, either inside or outside. Growing even the smallest pots or plot of land veggies saves on the grocery budget as well and is more healthy. I love Cerro Gordo and hope someday to visit!

Reminds me of the rental car reservation scene in Seinfeld 😂😂 “See you know how to take the reservation, you just don’t know how to HOLD the reservation. And that’s the most important part, the holding. Anyone can just take em”

[@luella2u152]

As a rental car company employee, I can tell you that when you make your reservation it's through a corporate office not necessarily located in the same area as your rental office. Those rental agents don't know what is available at each and every office location. Often they only know what is available throughout a particular regional area. If the region had 1000 minivans and 20 local offices, the national/centralize rental agent will rent you one on the premise that there should be one available to a particular office. That's where driver crews (what I do) come in and relocate particular vehicles to the individual offices within the region. The problem is when between all the offices the vehicles are already rented or in the shop for maintenance or repair or some other renter extended their rental and now there are none available. They will offer an upgrade, if possible, but you don't necessarily get the same type of vehicle that you want/need. This is frustrating to the customers, local offices and dispatchers of driver crews. (Drivers experience the least impact, because we just move what we're told to and where we're told to move them.)

Right! Yes! I really can’t wait to see it one day! How cool will that trip be right!

[@Blackkittymom]

The craptastic morning I'm having in NYC is probably the kind that made you want to leave NYC and go live alone with animals in a ghost town. Lol. This is so freakin pure and wonderful. I can't get enough!

[@dulcearredondo1646]

This is so beautiful makes me emotional I deleted social media to be at peace with myself and you are helping me manifest my dreams I hope to rescue animals one day and take care of them

[@zed804]

You know you've been alone too long in a ghost town when you start giving alpacas a personalized tour of the area

[@KyleInOklahoma]

*_You definitely have to get a dog now. A true companion that will keep the pets safe from wild cats plus they are a ton of fun & don't need to be in a pen._*

[@The_Osprey]

I agree...Anatolian Shepherd is my pick.

[@viktoriahuge3076]

Yeah! That's what I am thinking too.

[@wattsun7946]

Needs more than 1 there.

[@from4to5]

I cannot decide which is more adorable; the new family members or Brent being a tour guide to Chachi. 🥰

[@michellevlogs1906]

This video is amazing, the life you’ve now given those animals is fantastic, and they way you explained your love of animals from an early age was so heartwarming, this is the best video I’ve seen on KZbin in a long time 👍

[@Pabloworldwide]

I love the way you treat your furbabies my friend. It is a big display of your beautiful soul. Peace and happiness to you brother.

Here's a tip: tin roofs or galvanized iron typically will rust in most environments that aren't death valley or the salt lakes. Usually in the 30's and 40's they used a rust inhibiting galvanic paint, such as magnesium and later aluminum based paints, which give a lustrous silver finish to that old metal and reduce the anodic corrosion of those surfaces. If that's something you feel would match the aesthetic of Cerro Gordo, you should go for it. (And is period accurate.) You can still find the stuff new through Benjamin Moore, or Sherwin Williams.

[@StripesofValor]

Pretty awesome that you adopted 3 rescues alpacas to keep you company. It’s literally the best of both worlds; you get more companions and you’re giving these animals a good life! Bravo to you sir!

[@MattJGAMINGChannel]

Am I the only that loves watching these videos coming home late completely high 😂😂

[@lsaf6573]

Whimsical scenery: those Joshua trees you passed on the way to Cerro Gordo and the alpacas look like something out of Dr. Seuss

Brett: "Alpaca are super quiet" Alpaca: *Make constant noise through Brett's story.*

[@prehistoricboar4620]

His name is Brent :)

[@timebot000]

My favorite part was how they chilled in the car, not freaking out, that was great!

[@eemia26]

"Please. Please come sir." That was so freaking cute and sweet ♥️ Thanks for giving these 'pacas a new lease on life Brent!

[@harrieellen1731]

I dont know how easily this would be done to keep each alpacas wool separate but it would be so neat if you put a tag on the woolen beanies with the name of which alpaca's wool was used to make it! Then people could go and meet the alpaca it came from ahah and it would make it more personal and more of an experience!

[@dulcearredondo1646]

Yes i love that!

[@carolbroome6559]

Great idea 👏🏼

[@sarahkelly8585]

[@PeaceMeBish]

Someone needs to design a Cerro Gordo shirt with Brent, the cats, the goats and the alpacas. There’s a whole merch line here waiting to happen. You’re welcome. 😂

He already has some good merch, now we need the animal family on a shirt ee!

You're gonna want to get some livestock guardian dogs, mate! These guys are all a fast food joint for nearby yotes and big cats with no protection!

Absolutely. Sitting ducks for sure.

That would be so sad!!!! Definitely a must lol next video he adopts 4 dogs 😅

[@codyleslie478]

Yes Perinese are great guard dogs.. also a good donkey is great for protecting your stock.

[@kiernanhaney]

Pyrenees, Maremma, and Central Asian Shepherds are all incredible breeds for the job. Donkeys are not reliable and are known for stomping small goats and others when provoked at all. Daniel Nash is an incredible breeder of CAS in rural New York! Cannot recommend him enough.
