Land Rovers' departure point to heaven

Today - a still, clear, crisp Taranaki day, four of us drove inland from Urenui to Okoki, papa rock, green, steep hill country valleys, rivers, isolated farms until we reached the spot where all Land Rovers and Range Rovers go to heaven.  Paddocks full in various states of decline, amongst the pigs, cattle, chooks and the odd cat,   Patches in the shade were still white with frost, in other spots steam rose from the valleys as the sun reached in, hordes of fantails flitted over the paddocks catching the midges.  Long Johns, gumboots and thermoses were the order of the day.  Gorgeous sketching in the sun, a sketchers paradise.
