    We've got friends with tractors

    We participated in the biannual cobar to Louth and back, ferguson run over the long weekend. Rodney went with his father and brothers with his dads fergie, this time it was pretty much the whole family, Adam and family (our friend who is also our panel beater) plus three fergies. Great fun camping, drinking and relaxing. I was a bit of a hog with the fergie as I loved putting along in the sun. Although the road was so rough going out, I almost fell out.
    loaded fergies






    Rodney is in the Acubra on the left



    Me



    The bridge over the river Darling which we also caught a feed of yabbys that day



    Outside Shindy's inn



    My next project is too do one like this



    Even some of the local kids got involved



    And all Rodney's dad's efforts painting up his fergie we took out a prize for the most original and rusty fergie. He was not impressed Lol. Hope we never get a prize for rustiest sandman. Lol.





    Rodney's dad with his fully restored fergie And his three brothers

    Do you want to sell the parked one to me to do a similar project as the pink one. Minus the chrome wheels though

    Cheers j
