Jason...just come on over and enjoy the show with us...don't have to have a horse for this one...although it is free to get in if you do.  :)  You can ride mine in if you are there around 9:00.

I'll be there Steve.  Sounds like I'll have my father-in-law with me at least one day too! (I'll tell him you'll be there)  Been many years since I've made it to this show.

Thanks Joe!  If you have something handy and it doesn't take any effort... bring it along. Just wanted to have one to put my name on and get a show plaque if they have them!


Was going to use a Suburban from Andrew, but when I talked to him, he said he didn't know if he was bringing any, or just coming to walk around... you know... work stuff gets in the way!

everyone except me, Steve.

i don't know what happened with taking pics yesterday, i just got talking and catching up with you guys, spent some time looking at the tractors and the day was done. i thought about it a couple times, but then got sidetracked and no pics.

 

it was a very nice day yesterday, weather was great, rain held off and i think a good time was had by all.

Great pics of a great show Steve and Terry! David and I had a great time and enjoyed catching up with all the Red Square members in attendance.  The Sycamore Show is as good as Steve says it is -that's for sure!

 

 

I just got home after five days in northern Indiana and Illinois-but I need to get these posted!  Here are a few of the pics I took at the show!

What an absolutely gorgeous weather weekend!  Friday and Saturday, fair weather, temps around 70-75... and sitting in the shade with a light breeze.  What could be better?
 
Oh... yeah, enjoying that weather with some tractor buds!
 
Here's my pics from Sycamore.

 

Terry and Denny

There was a 1054 in the flea market... so of course Lane was spotted there!

And now a few other shots around the show…..

This guy bought this Holder off a scrap pile missing many parts and not even knowing what it was for a long time.

Never heard of this one before…

And last... a couple of the big boys.

 

This 1916 Illinois Engine was making it's debut at the show. It is owned by the club, purchased in 2003, and has just finally had restoration completed.  It was built locally in Sycamore, IL.  This is one of 65 built, 6 are still known to exist, only 3 of which run.

Again, what a great show, couldn't ask for better weather or company.  Was glad to get to hang out with these guys for a couple days.  Looking forward to seeing Steve and Terry again this weekend at the Le Sueur MN Pioneer Power show.  :thumbs:

There are more pictures, I just didn't want to put them all in the thread.  

You're welcome to view them here... http://s228.photobucket.com/user/jschahl/slideshow/MiscShows/Sycamore2014?sort=2

 

and for your listening enjoyment... Noon whistles from the steam show. (be sure to turn your volume up first so you can hear it) ;)

What great pics! I wish we had a show like that around here. The local steam show here has a few GT's but no one displays them except for me and Brandon and a few others here and there. Lot's of shade too and not in an open field.

 

I think the last time Steve was in so many pictures at one time they were filming Jurassic Park!  :)  :)  :teasing-poke:

One thing I do have to say, Martin's 416 looks better in person that it does in his rebuild thread. Outstanding job Martin! I'd love to have that in my garage. :bow-blue: 
I hear you were offering rides..... after I left. :banghead:
