The name Joyce belongs to one of 17 major clans of Ireland. It was made famous by the writer James JOYCE, whose works are rated among the literary giants of Western Literature. I wish I could write well enough to please me, let alone anyone else.  My children have all learned to drive on our farms in Willys Jeeps. They can double up and double down through the gears. 

We drive with the windscreen permanently down and secured as the Jeeps are a perfect platform for trimming down the numbers of rabbits and foxes on the farm.

Eagle Hill where the Jeeps run free

We run over 3500 acres of territory here, some hard country and some beautiful hills. Often kangaroos cross our paths and mad emus who simply cannot run away if they are too close and so we then stop. They seem to have no idea of self preservation and continue to run in a straight line until they slam into a gate or a fence. No one laughs as it is such a predictable and really silly event. We find having two Jeeps fun as often we can roar along side by side seeing who has the biggest smiles.
