For the final post in this series of helping you shelter safe, I have some pictures of the A-C tractor caravan from 2010 from Madison, SD to Albert City, Iowa. We hauled a couple of tractors out from Michigan to participate in this ride that the May and Reeser families organized. Had a bunch of fun with the people on this ride, you will probably see some familiar faces. NW Iowa at the time had experienced some where between 5 and 7" of rain, water everywhere, it was probably the warmest caravan I have ever been on and after a while, cold water didn't even taste wet. Hope you have enjoyed the pictures as FUN was part of every occasion. I pray that all of my forum friends remain healthy and shelter at home. We will get through this Covid-19 stuff.

snowman; Thanks for bringing back the memories, it sure was a good way to make friends. I was the one with the WD45 with the cab. Did at least 1500 miles with that tractor caravaning and said I would use the cab till we had a full day of pouring rain, which never happened. Thanks so much for posting Mark

Thanks, like Mark said, brings back a lot of memories. I am the second tractor on the fifth picture, WD with buggy top and flags. This was a special trip for me, I was in the middle of chemo therapy and my doctor said I could go. I wasn't sure if I could but it was a great time, thanks again.
