The man in black hat, boina, gancho y zurron, is Joaquin, Juaco el de Atilano, Rabadan de honor from Torrestio, a big book full of histories about mastines, wolves and sheep, and a whole life of trashumancia could be written by every single pastor in Spain, most of them will take their ancient knowlege to their graves...

When I published this photo, I knew it was bad and 'unsharp', but I loved that man with the black hat, he looked like a 'real' pastor' to me Smile so I put the photo in the gallery... What a pity if the stories the old pastores in Spain have to tell about the trashumancia and their lives with mastines, wolves and sheep never will be written for mastin fanciers to read in the future Sad
Why don't you collect some of their stories? And we could publish them in a small booklet or at websites Smile

The other day, last monday I think, the snow covered already the hills in Babia, I stopped to talk for a while with him, he remembered me once again the story of the end of Oliveros, when his cousin Herminio Tascon left him in a propertie near Leon, wile coming up from Extremadura, so he could be used as stallion to mount many bitches, it was the mastin boom of the 80s, he was used to be with his rebaño, the summer had come, and his place was up in the mountains of Torrestio

A week after he appeared in Torrestio exahusted with a huge chain after his collar, after more than 70 km and noone knows how many fatalities, I think he died weeks after but died in his majada free in his mountains

I don't know how much of true is there in this and other childhood histories but I remember as a child being fascinated by all of them.
