South from the Dordogne (downhill?)


Lacking the photographs of exotic locations (allbethey wet) across the south of France, I post a photo of this essential tool for all you eccentric budding Ferguson fanciers out there; without this Pa would not have rebuilt the tractor. Actually he may have rebuilt it, but not in the same way. Last night he was spotted at Carennac, just south of the Dordogne, and barring juggernauts, steep hills and too much wine he should be on the last few days of this epic journey and able to post all the glorious photographs soon.

Wet...


Pa is presently sans internet access, so in his absence I am posting a photo of him in his wet weather gear. I bet he is so utterly grateful for all the modern ultra-waterproofing materials he has been presented with. Next to covering him in latex, this souwester and fluorescent cape combo is de rigueur on the stormy continent. He is presently wet in Brive and heading south. I command you, dearest father to take more photographs.
