Haven't made it to a show in essentially two years now, so glad to finally get to go this weekend. Didn't have enough free time to arrange to drag my fixed up WD to the show, but oh well. Was glad to see some orange showed up today. Got a bit of video of the tractor pull but had to leave before things got going unfortunately so only caught maybe a dozen or so hitches, but quite a bit of it was orange!
https://youtu.be/PPyHZsZ6XAg Saw three tandem tractors! And a few pics of the show tractors lined up: |

Oh yes, Willie's BBQ was there. Brought home a full slab of ribs for us to split for lunch, it was delicious. Ya'll are quite welcome for the pics! I forgot to post a couple other pics I took. One of a row of JDs and the other of the few items I bought. Most I got from a guy I chatted with for awhile selling AC stuff right off the main road. |

steve(ill) -- Yes, they had that going for a bit on Friday, didn't swing back by on Saturday to see. Always fascinated me as a kid.
