      @Matt , @Fadez correct; living and ranching in eastern Bolivia, lowlands. Usually poor, intermittent or occasional internet.
      A few pics


      Truck moving ranch hands around


      Cuckoo bird, free-roaming ranch pet, raised from newborn and now 4 months old.


      Ranch food. Oven baked ‘bread’ made from rice flour. Larger ones are cheese filled. Delicious but a lot of work required for them. Local names are ‘pan de arroz’ and ‘empanada de arroz’


      These guys were born last night and too small to walk 3 km to the corral where their mothers are going, so they get to ride in the truck.

      The journey is the objective.

        @motojobobo Were you born and raised in the area or did you move there?  I’ve always loved your pictures and stories.

        Thank you for sharing!

                  Hey buddy! Thanks for your encouragement on my pics and (super short) stories. I’ve always veered towards brevity and may come off as rude. And yes, I’m locally bred, born and raised. Spent some years in the US during college and grad school. Turns out I’m @Matty123 ’s alma mater mate’s but different years. Been living back here for the last 24 years.
                  How I wish I had found IH earlier. My first purchase was a IHxViberg engineer boot, and when I look at my closet I realize I wandered into a rabbit giant cave.  😃 😃 😃

                  That will be fun @endo  and I very much look forward to it. I’m still working on getting my visa for the UK in time. Hope it happens. With my passport, EVERY visa is a major hassle.

                  The journey is the objective.

                            The picture of me stuck in traffic is where it took me 45 minutes to go 2 km's.  Thankfully it picked up and started moving after I made it past the point where I took the picture and about 4 km's into the last 23 km's left on my trip.

                            The worst part about it was that I was stuck between exits and had no where to go and had to ride it out.  This was at 9:45 in the morning.  When we left Toronto, the same spot was still bottle necked and traffic was backed up twice as far as when I saw it in the morning.

                            They say we have two seasons in Canada: Winter and Road Construction….

                                    @Anesthetist thanks! It is stunning here. We now moved to the seaside of Tuscany.
                                    Your jacket is an absolute beauty. Difficult to get Y2 over here. Please keep us posted on this one!
