So far
this autumn has turned out to be very fine indeed. And although the maximum
temperatures have dropped to around 10°C in the afternoon, it is still rather
enjoyable. This meant that the DHC has seen some extra action. The fact that
it is rather quiet at work at the moment certainly helped here, enabling me to
take a day off from work yesterday and take the DHC for a sunny tour through
our lovely province (Limburg), including some short stretches of Belgium and
Germany. A few pictures:

Newly
developed flood plain and nature reserve north of Geulle aan de Maas (NL)
One of the many narrow country lanes, the Akerstraat in Mechelen (NL)
Looking
over the valley of the river Geul, Reu de Beusdael Sippenaken (B)
Between Wijlre and Ubachsberg, Bronkweg Elkenrade (NL)
Close to the Vrakelbergerweg Elkenrade, also between Wijlre and Ubachsberg (NL)

I managed
to add another 425 kilometres to the cars odometer, which brings this year's
total to 2785. Not too bad bearing in mind that the car was of the road for
most of the summer months!
And with
the temperatures forecasted to drop towards freezing, it is pretty safe to say
this was the cars last trip before her mandatory (tax induced) three month
hibernation. But as the weather forecast also states that the weather will
remain fairly fine I hope I can take 't Kreng for one or two tours before the
end of the month!
And as you
can see in the picture at the top I also found some time for a short local green
laning trip through the area with the Land Rover:
