Just returned from the show.

I just wanted to let everyone know how cool the WH Collectors Club show was. Kudos to everyone involved with putting it on. You did a fantastic job.

I got to the fairgrounds at about 4:00 Thursday. The show officially started today but plenty of fun (and deals) are to be had the day before. What a great time!!! I got a campsite next to my truck, setup my tent, and went to see the one guy I knew at the show. My buddy Bill had a table setup and between him and the other Bill, they had TONS of cool parts for sale. I ended up buying a sweet B-100 from Bill and then spent the next 24 hours collecting parts for it, and my 655. I don't know how many tractors and people I saw today but I would guess at least 500 of each.

Anyway, Maybe this will get some people to go out to Gettysburg tomorrow. You will not be disappointed, I promise.

Uncle Bo and I just returned back to CT about 1 hour ago. It was my first show and was a great time. I managed to fill my trailer with stuff. I heard in the past the pricing was high but I found the pricing on parts and attachments to me very good (I guess compared to here in CT). I go a bunch of cool stuff and it will not be my last show. The one thing I did learn is that I need to bring a rider next year. I bought a front mount mower hanger form mrs. bearpath, a recycler from Eldon, 2 decks, a 48 inch plow set up, 4hp Kohler for my 58 RJ and a bunch of other goodies. Had a great time and will be making it an annual trip.

For me getting there on Thursday and leavng Friday late is perfect. I was great to meet all the redsquare folks.

Steve,

Went looking for you last night. Know I know we could not find you. Butch was looking to meet you too.

Last day. Firesale prices!

Did Cecil Pond make it this year? I started going in 2006 and that is when I met him for my first time. Such an interesting and down to earth man. Glad everyone is having a good time, sure wish I could have made it this year. There is always next year though. Keep those pics flowing on in.

Didn't see him on Friday. I think someone said 2008 was going to be the last year he was going to attend . But you never know!

[stevebo-(Moderator) 8,382]

Maine Dad.... sorry. Uncle Bo and I decided to head out around 3pm which would get us back to CT about 8:30-9pm. It was great meeting you sorry I missed meeting Butch. Maybe next year I will meet up with you guys again. Steve Bo-

I walked around which seemed like forever looking for a dark skinned Italian and a motorhome with CT plates!! CT has a good group of guys. It's nice to put a name here to a face there EXCEPT for one dark skinned Italian!

[Butch 194]

No Cecil Pond. But Mike Martino, the author of Straight from the Horses Mouth, was reported to have been there.

Hey SteveBo, you scored the motor I went to go and get! Hope it works well for you. I saw another guy there, but he wouldn't unbolt it from the frame. Maybe next time.

[clintonnut 126]

I scored on pulleys for my RJ-35! Nice to see all of you there. I enjoyed talking to you Chris!

I actually got to PA on Friday night. I only went to the show on Sat. That was definatly part-time compared to others. I can just envision my kids driving around the show in the future. Perhaps a Lawn Ranger will be in my future.

Hello All,

My wife, dad and myself had a great time. Definately going again next year. I bought a deck and snow blower for my 1054a. Just need to stay longer one day is not enough.

Sure seems like there is a lot more people here online than that showed up for the group pic. Next year we'll have to plan a group photo in advance so we all know about it. It sucks we gotta wait 365 days!!
