AJ_Thanatos 516 #28 Posted September 11, 2014 (edited) If your at 199 tractors let me know .. I can probably bring my '74.. Keep in mind I have zero show queens. Just workers in their "work clothes" at the moment. Edited September 11, 2014 by Thanatos 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brrly1 1,146 #31 Posted September 15, 2014 What's up everyone? I hope all is fine! I'm going to be donating a aluminum Front weight for raffle. This particular weight I would like all the proceeds to go to Keith Jones alias Hammerhead. I met Keith and his good friend Larry about ten years ago down at the Wapokenta fall show and swap. We talked for a few. I ended up with the 57 rj that we were discussing, anyways we kinda of talked here an there but with Keith going thru all of the things that he is right now with the throat cancer and having to sell off his tractors (That Sucks) I am just trying to Help out with some of his medical costs. I guess what I'm asking for is just a little Help from all of you guys. Let's do this so Keith can save his Tractors!!! Maybe Scott can jump in here also. I'll post more this afternoon. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whfan74 2,066 #32 Posted September 18, 2014 John, We need to talk....I will try and get in touch with you. Sorry things have been hectic on my end. Just over 2 weeks away folks!!!! I am chomping at the bit to get things rolling. Bring a TON of tractors and let's fill the place up! Should be fun! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SousaKerry 501 #33 Posted September 18, 2014 I put the ags on the beast and dug the 12" plow out of the woods this past weekend. Maybe tonight I will hook it up and do a few test passes. Hope the plowing is good this year as it broke my heart not having a tractor to plow with last year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

whfan74 2,066 #37 Posted September 22, 2014 Scott I would like to buy some tickets if there is some way to arrange it via pay pal ect . I'd like to help the cause . If I win anything I'm sure the Dino Express could get it to me Best bet is to coordinate with the Dino or someone else that is attending. That way it keeps me out of it and I agree it is all going to a good cause. Battery Charged þ Body Washed þ Lens Cleaned þ Lights Operational þ Accessories Attached þ Probably should get some tractors ready You crack me up and I can't wait to see what kind of magic you can do with the camera this year. Your photos from last year received many, many compliments. Looking forward to seeing you soon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whfan74 2,066 #38 Posted September 26, 2014 We are just barely one week away! Thank you for taking the time and making the sacrifice to be with us for the day. We are excited to see everyone again! Thank you to everyone who has communicated to me your willingness to help with the raffle prizes. We could still use some help. If you feel led to contribute please let me know. Plowing may be a no go. The beans are still on the field and am hoping we will be able to turn over some soil. Bring some fuel for your Horses. I am planning on having a tractor cruise. These beauties were meant to move! I will be placing a donation box out to help cover many of the expenses that are incurred during the day in order to put a show of this magnitude together. Any help is greatly appreciated. Food will be available for purchase again from the Miller family. The pies are amazing! A few folks will be setting up Friday afternoon and evening. Feel free to stop by any time after noon on the 3rd. Hoping to have a bonfire Friday night if the weather cooperates. We will have a swap meet area again. Work out and post those deals this week. I will continue to update as we are getting closer. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1maidenfan 202 #39 Posted September 27, 2014 Evening Scott. Have a couple questions about next wkends meet n greet. Do you have your address posted on here? Don't recall exactly where the farm is. Any idea what time the raffle will start ? I have items for it and I want to make sure I get them in the raffle. Thanks, John Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevasaurus 22,631 #41 Posted September 29, 2014 The weather forecast is looking like another fantastic day in October at Scott's M&G !!! This is always the weekend I get to put on my winter clothes and see if it all still fits. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevasaurus 22,631 #44 Posted September 29, 2014 I'll be there Friday afternoon Scott. My extended forecast is showing 40 for a low and 58 for a high...sunny, but a 30% chance of rain. Absolutely perfect for a M&G. As usual, it will be in the 60's on Friday and Sunday. If I can keep my camera from frosting up, I think we should do a group pick a little before the raffle. I'd like to line everyone up about 10 across and 4 or 5 deep if possible...I think we could get a much better and closer picture then having everyone spread out in 2 rows. What do you think??

stevasaurus 22,631 #49 Posted September 29, 2014 (edited) I've always been an outside kind of guy...I hate it when it is hot. I really like the weather that Scott has had at his M&G through the years...I mean it when I said perfect. Did somebody say pie and coffee?? I hope they have a cherry pie for me to bring home. That sharknado we had last year was incredible. Can you tell I am getting pumped for this weekend??? Edited September 29, 2014 by stevasaurus 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
