[Lane Ranger 10,992]

My brother David Ralph and I and our uncle Don Redding from Indiana are heading south in 20 minutes to the Florida Flywheelers Show in Avon Park Crossing -south of Frostproof, Florida for the weekend show.

Looking forward to seeing the show, tractors and meeting lots of good folks interested in all types of old equipment and motors.

Lawn and Garden Collectors Magazine owner and editor Kate Goelzhauser and Bradon Pfeiffer are goign to be there.

We are also visiting with Jerry Pugh, a Red Square member in St. Cloud, Florida -near Kissimmee to see his collection of tractors.

I am taking him a Wheel Horse seat pan for a 1055 tractor that he bought from Kelly Hollister!

Looking forward to some 75 to 80 degree weather!!

Here is the link to the Florida Flywheelers website on their 240 plus acres:
