Well, it's that time of year and can't wait to get out there again to some of the shows!

We go on Saturdays

Wish we had more shows around here early. The Big Show is the first one and the local steam shows are in Aug and Sept.

Alright @Sparky, You live close so make the go / no go weather call.

From what they're showing up here it looks good for the morning and rain later in the afternoon.

It's gonna be another mad scramble this afternoon just to get my stuff ready to go.

Great day hanging with @Docwheelhorse @wallfish @Retired Wrencher @Handy Don plus plenty of other WH guys (not all members here). 
 

 

[wallfish 17,549]

Always good to hang out with you guys for the day! There was a really good amount of WH tractors there today too.

 

Think everyone found at least one score. I got the dump truck frame thingy for a fair price.

Put a Wheel Horse hood on it and bring it to the Big Show.

It was a quick visit to the show for me but it was great talking with @Handy Don !

Wasn’t the largest crowd I’ve seen there, but close. Lots and lots of vendors and the club had most of their make-and-break engines out and running. One important aspect of these 3-times-a-year events is that the club has many indoor permanent exhibits of farm equipment and outdoor operating heavy “power shovels”. Lots here for children including the largest sandbox I've ever seen!

As always, great to connect with friends and fellow WH enthusiasts (at least two stopped me while cruising to discuss our favorite tractors). Lots of other brands were well-represented--I spotted two Beavers and one Mayrath amid a seeming sea of Craftsman, Cub, and JD.  

Thanks to @Sparky for the loan of wheels to save my dogs from trekking up and down those long rows!

And good luck to @wallfish with his new project acquisition!
