We packed a change of clothes, figuring we'd look the tractors over, spend a night at some nearby motel, and then head home... or to my Allen family reunion. Whatever. I just wanted a road trip. I checked out an audiobook onto the iPad, from our library (John Grisham's "Rogue Lawyer") and left shortly after 7 AM. Turns out I had already read the book, but I didn't remember some parts. And it really helped Cliff pass the time.
Whoa, look at that GREAT BIG TRACTOR!
What a nice Massey Harris!
Before there was Oliver, there was Hart-Parr
This is a Canadian Oliver. It's pretty much the same tractor as an Oliver, but in Canada they called it a Cockshutt.
And now, the Oliver tractors!!!!
The owner of this John Deere had the fanciest, finest seat for his wife we've EVER seen, so I took a few pictures. Seriously, this is wonderful handiwork.
It looks fascinating! I didn't realize there was such a variety of tractors. (don't tell Cliff!) All the styles and colors are amazing. :)
ReplyDeleteWho knew there could be so many different tractors. Looks like Cliff is not the only one who enjoys them! Happy Sunday!
ReplyDeletelooks like the two of you were in tractor heaven. glad you had a good time.
ReplyDeleteWow! Pretty impressive array at this show! It's good the two of you can combine your "loves" to make a great outing for both of you.
ReplyDeleteOur daughter-in-love's father "collects" tractors... the Allis Chalmers variety. I think he has something like 23 of them or so? His tractors have their own special "house"... a huge & beautiful outbuilding. He just retired not too long ago so I'm expecting more acquisitions in his spare time. :) Loved reading about the tractor show and seeing the lovely pictures.

Wow! Lots of different and unique tractors. That purple one threw me for a loop, ha! My son in law would love to go to a tractor show like this. So happy you are both able to go yet. How is Cliff doing? Been praying for him Wendy
