Tractor Parade





Craig and I worked the evening shift at the blacksmith shop last night. The shop is right next to the tractor building and usually you get a few more people stopping by than in the daytime. It seemed to work out for us. The tractor parade and corn shelling brought quite a few people our way. Saw some family and friends plus your average fairgoers.

I included a photo of the big Oliver because it's got a polished supercharger on it. I included a picture of the Minneapolis Moline because it's pretty rare with the LP power and I included a picture of the Cockshutt because the name sounds like some weird venereal disease. The photo of the garden tractor pulling the train - well that's all about kids having fun at the county fair.

Gotta love the Tractor Porn pictures. Our Fair started yesterday, so I'll have to go look at all the cool stuff and eat food that is bad for me.

There was a WD 45 Diesel with a fresh paint job like Brother Dave used to have plus several other WDs. Pretty good selection all in all. I had a couple of pork burgers and a tenderloin as big as your head. Good times.
