wallfish 17,094 #1 Posted April 27, 2016 The Zagray Farm Museum shows are consistently good. http://www.qvea.org/ The spring show usually gets a big crowd if the weather is nice so get there early. Lots to see, plenty of vendors and bring a tractor to cruise around on so you can go around a couple of times or more. Seems like someone finds a gem there every year too. Plan is to be there Saturday as usual and my father is coming up from NJ this year to check it out. I think he might even have a couple to sell so I'll get some pics and info on what he has. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coadster32 793 #7 Posted April 28, 2016 It's the only show I even went to last year. Modified the tractor for the kids last year, and they had alot of fun. It is a good show, especially if the weather cooperates. My son has his first communion on Saturday. Not going to miss that. Sorry guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fireman 1,022 #8 Posted April 29, 2016 I actually might be able to make it this year. I have to work Friday till Saturday morning but usually my relief is there around 7:00am. I'm going to see if I can get someone to come in at 6:00 so I can get there around 7:30. John if your there early, save me a parking spot! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wallfish 17,094 #9 Posted April 29, 2016 (edited) I'll save as much room as I can for everyone and put up 2 tents and spread out, so it should be good. I can't get there super early but should be there by 6:30 if packed up and ready to go on Friday. Hey Russ, Glad to see you're feeling better and ready for the show season! Had me worried for a while. Edited April 29, 2016 by wallfish Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wallfish 17,094 #16 Posted May 6, 2016 Shows only a 5% chance of rain in Colchester CT on the weather so I'm still in for tomorrow. Might be there just a bit later than planned because I can't get loaded up in the rain. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky-(Admin) 21,444 #17 Posted May 6, 2016 Last time I went to Zag's (Fall show last year) in the rain I got stuck walkin around with the only RedSquare guy that showed up......it was the most painful 2 hours of my life! Seriously....it's so close there's no way I'm not going. I gotta have my sausage, peppers and onion sandwich . Just flew home this evening from a road job in Virginia so no time to get the 1054 up and ready so it's my hacked up, rusty, ugly Honda powered 656 with a very leaky rear tire for me!

fireman 1,022 #21 Posted May 7, 2016 If I was as close as you Mike I would probably go for the heck of it too. But 2 hours each way is not worth the chance. Not to mention I got things to finish at home. Let's hope the Summer and Fall shows offer better weather! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevebo-(Moderator) 8,353 #23 Posted May 7, 2016 I just got home myself from a day of driving with my buddy up and down NY looking at boats. He ended up buying a nice Formula so it was worth it I will be riding my 953 which is the one my boy had access to down in the barn. The forecast I saw was a high chance of a shower at 7am then good the rest of the day. We will be there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wallfish 17,094 #24 Posted May 7, 2016 Well, it was a little damp this morning but there was a decent turnout for what the weather was. Only snapped a couple of pics Here's Sparky (Mike) all proud of a new hood ornament. We all told him it was a little big and not original but that didn't stop him! Saltywright (Russ) in the background And then we picked up a couple K181s and some skins for matching hood ornaments This I just thought was cool 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky-(Admin) 21,444 #25 Posted May 7, 2016 There's two good reasons right there to not paint your hood! The weather was not the best but I had a great time just hanging out with the crew and driving up and down the aisles.....and of course I scarfed down a sausage/onion/pepper sandwich.
