Jrblanke 857 #1 Posted June 28, 2021 Well folks, another big show in the books, and I’m already looking forward to next year! I had such a blast seeing old friends, and making new ones! Each year it seems like I meet a few more people and am able to strike up new friendships. Even without the home made pie and hot water for showers, it was such a fantastic time! My only regret is not having more time to spend with folks. (And by the way, I did hit the Giant Grocery and got some shoo fly pie, hehehe) This was about my 7th big show, and looking back, its funny how my perspective of the show has changed. At the the first show I went to back in 2014, I arrived thinking it was all about the tractors, and when I left, I was thinking it was more about the people. Now I KNOW its about the people. Great seeing everyone! Hope to see you again soon! 5 6 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tell you what, I'll trade you the pie for some home made clear stuff that comes in a mason jar. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Always enjoy a rhubarb and strawberry pie! There was a pie shop in Amsterdam, NY that had them only for a couple of weeks each year in mid-July. Yumm. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoeM 7,874 #7 Posted June 28, 2021 No Pie and didn't see the tractor teeter totter either. Nice crowd and some deals. And my hats off to @Wild Bill in VA, one of his stellar performances! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And my hats off to @Wild Bill in VA, one of his stellar performances! Heard the "owner " of the teeter totter took it saying it needed maintenance. The club asked where it was and the answer was "it wasn't coming back" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rmaynard 15,519 #13 Posted June 28, 2021 For most shows since 2010, I've set up right in front of the teeter-totter. Several times I feared for my life as a youngster came off sideways and veered in my direction. I for one did not miss it...but I did miss the shoefly pie. 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
