We've added a garage to the depot at Castel-Pere to protect the tractor. It is too valuable an asset to leave outdoors at night. This will serve to protect it from the elements and from rodents (as in little boys who are absolutely fascinated by any large machine). The kids are drawn to the tractor like bees to honey.
Berthony snapped these two photos this morning of "the Beast" at work. The driver has over twenty years experience and is a workaholic-- probably explains why is is unmarried. He enjoys his work and usually starts at sun-up and lasts until dusk. We'll need to buy more land just to keep him busy.
