Pullstart 62,783 #1 Posted June 24, 2019 Mrs. Pullstart did the most picture taking, while I kept tractors running. @Wild Bill in VA thank you for trying to help before the parade! Jada’s “Barney Fife” 857 seemed to have lost it’s points. I could file them and that k181t would just purr for a good two minutes then it died again. Rylee’s battery died twice, Hot Wheels lost a fuse, Frank quit running in the Cruise night, his stack about fell off.... and all the tractors to tear apart! I pretty much lost my first 953 to my girls, especially Rylee. I heard fun stories, made new friends, saw old ones too! The pictures are quite random, including the smoked brakes, the trip to @roadapples‘ house, Rylee walking on her hands, and whatnot around the fair grounds... Now... for the ground to just dry out so I can in-stuck Norman and unload.... 9 9 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZXT 2,401 #2 Posted June 24, 2019 One thing that I've noticed from the plethora of pictures everyone has been posting.. I haven't seen a single picture where anyone looked like they were having anything but a fantastic time. Excellent pictures, and that wooden RJ-58 is extremely cool! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 9,981 #3 Posted June 24, 2019 Thanks for the photos' Kevin. Just one thing. I'd be interested to see how your loading ramps are fixed when in transport position. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

19richie66 17,500 #5 Posted June 24, 2019 Thanks for the pictures. Definitely another pullstart feature “load-up”. Glad to hear you made it back ok. Hope the cleanup at home is not too bad. The girls look like they had a blast. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wild Bill in VA 1,451 #6 Posted June 24, 2019 Kevin, If you can send me a PM with your phone number and I will text you the picture of Rylee I took before we got to go into the fairgrounds. Wild Bill in Richmond, VA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd be interested to see how your loading ramps are fixed when in transport position. Hopefully this works, post 219 in my “shop project” thread starts the build of the deck. Three 3/8-16 bolts hold each ramp in place. They are heavy buggers, I’m glad I don’t have to do that every day! 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jrblanke 857 #19 Posted June 26, 2019 I love the pictures! I have a 2 year old girl and it is encouraging to see that my future doesn't have to be all be barbie dolls and nail polish. (though, if it was, I think id be OK with it :D) I hate I didn't meet you guys. I'll be sure to stop by next year! 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,783 #20 Posted June 26, 2019 Well, we’re almost unloaded.... the top layer at least! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BHunter 1,700 #21 Posted June 26, 2019 1 hour ago, pullstart said: Well, we’re almost unloaded.... the top layer at least! I was wondering how you were going to get them down from the upper deck. Any plans to build a loading/ unloading ramp in the future? Great pics. Lots of great memories made last week. You had to work your butt off keeping everything going for the girls to have fun. But it looked like you were enjoying working on the horses too. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,783 #22 Posted June 26, 2019 @BHunter This was my method for the time being, due to sinking my truck in the yard. I can typically back into the ditch and load/unload off the road, but eventually I’ll put this pile of power poles to use and build a loading dock similar to what’s at the show grounds. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,783 #23 Posted June 26, 2019 I’m close to the end of unloading! We are planning to camp next week then the following head to Portage, WI so the deck will remain on the truck for a while. 2 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
