Still not sure if I can make it yet. All the Zagray Museum shows are one of the best around with lots to see and usually a big turnout. Weather is always a factor but...

I'll be out of state Saturday but might be able to hit it on Sunday.

Oh yeah. You'd be tired if walking the entire grounds. There's plenty of space to ride. There's a road which goes down back to the big boy's sand pit where they run some of the big old earth movers, which is right up your alley. Never really see any times displayed for when they operate them so we usually cruise around back there a few times during the day and catch it. The one I see running the most is an old tracked excavator and all operated by winches and cables which are activated with levers.

There's a huge flea market / vendor area. Many good scores were taken from there. Your early RJ with the round hubs came from there. Vins cable steer RJ35 which he turned into that prototype tractor, @stevebo ALWAYS seems to find some good stuff. It is hit or miss (pun intended) when it comes to what's there but it's always interesting to look around. You should definately come out. If you have a camper, camping is free right there in your own camp / display area. They set up on Thu and Fri. I think. We usually go on Saturday.

I wish I could! Not even 100% sure I could make it on Sunday.

  Need to make sure my job doesn't try to send me anywhere for the Oct 6-7 show

The plan is for me to be there on Saturday... and as John said sometimes there is a gold nugget hidden somewhere.

[wallfish 17,078]

Just a Bump!

So far so good for having the time to go next Sat. Of course things could change in an instant but...

Think I'll display some of the Ohlsson & Rice collection too

Well? Who went and what was bought??

[wallfish 17,078]

I worked extra late 2 days this week and did installations by myself in order to keep Saturday clear and it backfired on me. Was up all last night sick, something wrong in my stomach. Couldn't get out of bed until 10am

@wallfish

  I’m going tomorrow morning, no tractors, just going to roam the aisles. 

  If your little boo-boo tummy is up to it meet me there.

Stayin hydrated John?  I spent a day on a black roof Thursday. Have to go up and down 2 straight ladders to do it which means lots of roping equipment. I was so whipped the only thing that got me down the 2nd ladder was knowing there was a drinking fountain and an ice machine below.

Not true! I did offer to buy you this which a vendor had for sale and if ya had a “flare-up” at the show you would be prepared 

 

[Sparky-(Admin) 21,403]

 So Sunday is never as good as Saturday. I think about 30% of the vendors only do Saturday. But it was the only day I could go.

  Didn’t bother hauling a tractor, just walked the grounds. Not much for WH stuff for sale, couple mower deck belt guards, hood and one round hood (702 maybe?) that may or may not have been for sale. Nobody to ask.

 Watched some tractor pulling till the heat started getting to me.

  Picked up a few inline fuel filters and of course the obligatory sausage/peppers/onions sandwich
