We just got home thru the storm too ! Another fine job by Kelly and Company, the wife says she had a good time so maybe she starting to get the horse fever too, but she is mostly glad steveasaurus[?] got volunteered to take care of the weather conditions for next years show as she was getting a little overheated thanks in advance steve

Lonny,was great to see you,and I bet your son is glad I kept him from wearing a bra I would say the games were pretty interesting and I am glad nobody(but maybe someone did) get a picture of me with a skirt on Well I guess we'll see you guys at the next show. And to you guys that ask why I kept eric from wearing a bra...don't ask ~Jake

[smoreau 658]

Jake it was great to meet you! I can hold that pic I have of you with that bra and dress on for some black mail, just kidding buddy, I have no pic of you. You did real good with that 875! I love short frames! Got a pic of a big guy on a little tractor! This is priceless!!

I also got Steve to drive Gabby's tractor back to the camp grounds, but no pic. Having the time of my life here with great friends!

We had a great time Saturday at the Charlotte, Michigan Big and Little Tractor Show held at the Eaton County Fairgrounds.

Great Kudos to Kelly for helping organize and support this event for for the lawn and garden tractor supporters -espcicaly the Wheel Horse and Red Square Wheel Horse contigent that made this a great event.

The raffle event also was well done and helps support the growth or the show.

I have a few photos but little commentary to make tonight. My camera had a dabble of suncreen on it and I have a spot on several of the photos but they the sharp restorations and original patina of the Wheel Horse tractors and allied equipment displayed comes through!

For all the Red Square gang that could not attend and I know enjoys looking at these great mcahines -this posting is for you!

Scott and Brrly1 Notice John lost that beard he used to have, but he is growing it back.

Checking out Brrly's new sign

Check out this group...front row Brian and Scott...back row Abraham, Martin and John

This shot shows how Scott parked his table so he could lean against this tree.

EricRedHorse's son...he is into video games

Always love those orange tractors

Seated at the table...EricRedHorse and Dave (Funengineer) Great to talk with you guys.

The blind tractor race. The driver is blindfolded and the guy behind him is telling him how to navigate the maze. They go forward like this and then switch places and have to back back out. Really cool.

JakeKuhn on his horse doing the chain race. You had about 10 feet of chain hooked to the back of the tractor and had to go back and forth getting all the chain on the metal tray.

The suitcase race...the orange hat and black skirt is Kelly

Lonny (Otrelwood) and Lane Ranger...great seeing you guys again.

Scott's daughter Gabby on her Ranger. she is going to break hearts

JoeBob and Denny (DClarke) finding some shad. Great to see you again Denny...actually Joe was showing Denny how to do a pole dance.

[perry 82]

just enough rain to get surface wet. I thought we were going to get nailed scott brought this conopy over for us.

[stevasaurus 22,713]

Perry, I had a blast spending the time this year with you and your wife and kids shooting the breeze. I had her laughing a few times :) I can't believe I do not have any pictures. I will have them next year mate...but I just want to say "Thank You" for your friendship and looking forward to next year. I had a great time.

[Martin 2,132]

wow, you mean we could have waited it out? we got absolutely hammered just after we got onto i 69 heading south.......

was good though, to have an extra day at home to pack things up, but i would have much rather stayed for another day......

just wish it could have lasted longer.............

oh well, next year i guess.....

thanks to kelly and family for an awesome show once again........

was a really great weekend, all of you are such a nice bunch of people and we really enjoyed ourselves. you all have really got jeanine hooked now as well. i wasnt sure how the weekend was going to go for us, being the first time for her, but she had a blast, and is constantly talking about more shows this year......

i really need to pull it back a little and get myself a decent trailer though.....

thank you all......
