I didn't want to do two posts so I'm combining it all here since it is mostly pics of my family and tractors, but there are a few tractors from the show thrown in. What a show. Great weather, but most importantly all the tractors ran flawlessly and everyone had a great time and were safe. The Yeoman and Broadmoor's ran a ton, since everytime friends of my kids saw them we started them up and let them drive them. I got a lot of walking time in since I walk beside them whenever they run them. Anyway, I'll start with slideshow!!
This is my family just before I pulled them through the parade.
That's my oldest, Emma, driving my brothers Universal 20hp. She was there the whole weekend, never came home and slept with my bro in the camper they keep there the whole weekend!!
The spark show is always impressive.
Anyone seen this before? A Devere............
Even the wife got in on the fun!!
LOVE this International!!
These guys are very nice. The Landlord on the left is the twin 10hp tractor.
A scale team tractor powered by an 8hp Briggs. Very nicely done.
Found this in the market. A very nicely done handmade steam tractor. The piston moves, the firebox opens, all wheels turn and it was just too nice to add to my sons collection. Love this stuff.
I pulled kids around all weekend but this is the only proof of it!! LOL
All packed up and ready to drive home!! |

Money can't buy you happiness. It can however buy you a beer. And that is close enough.

Great memories Jon,, Reminds me of my youth, I was very fortunate to grow up around the steam threshers,,, tell Emma,, there's nothing better than backing a Case 80 into the baker fan. I did it at 11 years old,, one of my most memorable moments. |

This is great. So much better than an extra pay check and staying at work. |

Jared, yes. That stretched landlord has 2 10 horse briggs connected together. Quite a machine. They did a very good job with it. You need to get your schedule so you can stop by again, michael! :) |

I am astounded at how fast your kids are growing. Emma is turning into a young lady and the others aren't far behind. Glad you are making memories while they are young as it passes like a vapor. |
