Brittney´s spear?


Today I went back to The Village again. I passed through The Town to get some food for the weekend and realised there was some kind of town festival going on. The local mechanical museum had brought out some machines, including this barking machine.It didn´t bark like a dog but made a more machine like sound, as machines did when grandfather used to be young. A sign said it was used for taking the bark away from fence poles, and and make the ends more pointy. The very informative sign also informed the visitors it did "ten mens work". That is progress!
