A Family Affair at theGawler Show


Hi again,
My husband spotted this family of tractors at the show. So cute!
The restoration of old farm machinery hold a great fascination to those of us not of that era, and brings back many fond memories to the oldies that saw them every day when they were young, especially if they grew up in the country.
Most of these great machines would not measure up in today's world of OH&S. No thought was given back then to the noise levels, or whether one might lose an arm or even worst their life.
I live at Gawler which is an hours drive from Adelaide and we have just held the annual 'Bay to Birdwood Run'. This is a very popular event where vintage and veturan cars and vehicles are driven from Glenelge to Birdwood in the Adelaide foot hills.
