Epeigné-les-Bois: Fête Country 2011 – the clear up

Unfortunately having chosen to do the Translayon (3rd-5th June), we missed Epeigné's third annual Fête Country as well as the morning randonnées. As always a lot of work goes into setting up these events as well as clearing up afterwards, which often goes unrecorded. Here are some photos of part of this morning's clear up after La Fête.
