Unfortunately, this show falls on the same weekend as our local "Working Farm Show" at Joslin,Il. I just may skip it this year to drive up nort  I've only missed it twice before. Once for the GOTO Coming Home and once while recovering in a hospital bed.

Thanks for bringing back old memories, It was my first "caravan" experience. Don Snow did an excellent job of leading us thru some of the busy paty of Milwaukee. I notice some of the participants are no longer with us. Several names I recognized, like Mike Shmelling with his `37 Wc, and Jim Roney on his WD45. One of thehigh lights for me was the caravan in the evening before our departure in Milwaukee. Hundreds of people on their front porch as it was getting dark and watching us in the rain as we made our way to the allis Factory. What a trip that was.

I can post it if I had it. If you can get it to me on a flash drive, SD card or dvd I will put it up.

I would have to get permission from the producer of the dvd before I could post.

Hello ALL I have been proud to be on the 2005 and the 2019 GOTO committees, IN 2005 I said that would be a ones in a lifetime happening never to happen again. Fast forward 2019 I'm doing it again, at 77 it takes more time They asked instead of hauling 28 loads tractor STUFF would I have an open house which I thought would be easier? Started by ripping out 8 horse stalls out, pouring 20 yrds concrete, installing a 10X12 overhead door, Finding glass lit display cases and shelving for the memorabilia that has been in boxes behind boxes and more stuff in front. We will have a grand opening of the Museum on Wednesday Sept 11 before the show and Friday 13 and Sunday 15. We will have our own Sweet corn hot dogs hambugers and refreshments Hope to see here Allen
