Thankfully they had not gone as far as the river as it is in spate just now.<br /><br />A few hours of extra work due to a moment of thoughtlessness.<br /><br />We have been so careful not to go on the fields with machinery as it would destroy the soil structure or cause huge ruts once it froze....GentleOtterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04728896118931496934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804759117912757983.post-56496475500994156212011-11-06T01:43:10.693-07:002011-11-06T01:43:10.693-07:00We are completely speechless, horrified, bewildere...We are completely speechless, horrified, bewildered.
