It was cool this morning and the locals had their jackets on. The snowbirds were in their shorts and shirtsleeves. We have some really nice motor homes in the lot. 6 or 8 GMC's, a couple that really look like new. I will post some photos of them.
Our photos today are of an old Ford that has about everything on it. It still runs like a sewing machine and starts quickly. There is even a mother-in-law seat, from a farm implement, on the front bumper. There is a rooster in the box on the rear bumper. There is a sign on it that says "My wife dresses to kill and she cooks the same way". There are three similar cars here but this one is very interesting.
I watched the antique tractors pull. They all pulled in rotation little and big. There was one huge Oliver 99, probably from the 4o's that had a diesel engine. The owner had put a turbo charger on it and boy would it sing. It made a full pull every time, what a monster.
The show opened at 9am and they were standing in line to get in. There was plenty of food to eat, blue grass music all day in the main building. There was a couple of shows on the main stage and a classic/custom car show as well. There were old tractors on display as well as the Budweiser 8 horse hitch that paraded around the grounds and through the crowd. everyone really enjoyed the beautiful horses.
I spent most of my time watching the antique tractors pull as well as listening to the different musical groups on stage in the main building. The show was to close at 5pm and by 4:30 the crowd had thinned to only a few and everyone closed up and went to their respective unit for the night. Tomorrow at 9am it will all start over again.
