Keeping It In The Family?

There's not usually much happening on our little back road. But today it was buzzing - literally - to the sound of tractors, ancient and modern.  A ploughing competition ....

I didn't venture too close.  It was a bit muddy, and there were some very serious faces.  Not a place for civilians like us, I think.  Lovely to see, though.

I like to think of these two as great-grandpa and his smart grandson.  I think Grandpa was the one in action today.

We came back along the other side of the river. In the extra you can see the patchwork they made. It always surprises me to see how dark the earth is when it's newly turned.
