The show is Great again like always. Everything is perfect. I live right here in town so I am maybe prejudice. I have been to the JD Expo several times and this show makes it look like a bunch of amateurs in comparison.
 
Or drive a few thousand miles to Lynden Washington for the Gathering of the Orange West. What a show is being assembled. I left there last night and there wereover 100 Orange on sight with Wheatland and High Crops in abundance. The show does not officially start till July 31 but there are already people here from Iowa and Colorado with more by tonight (Sat) with a picnic scheduled for tonight And the tractor drive on Tuesday. Perfect weather is forecast so come on over and see a very large orange show as well as all other colors and many displays in a beautiful park setting. Camping is avaiable and shuttle around the grounds and Field Demos. Call 360-393-7760 or 360 988-4173 for more info. Thanks
 
I was there yesterday for a few hours and spent the day there today. This is definitely one of the best organized shows/events, that I go to. For the last two years it has been at the fairgrounds and you couldn't find a better place to have it. Was always excellent at the Larry Karg farm also, but it's layed out so nice at the fairgrounds, and this year it was fri, sat, and sun. which has made it even nicer for the folks from out of town to enjoy everything without rushing so much. Seriously the best time I've had this summer. Kudos to the people making this event happen! Don't change a thing. The land provided for equipment exibitions was absolutely perfect, everyone had a chance to plow, thresh, bale, etc. All I could think about today was that I hope these kind if shows never lose the interest of current fans and participants, and that we instill it on generations to come.
 
was there on saturday for a while good show as always, found some Oliver toys i'd been looking for, I really enjoyed watching the garden tractors plowing. When watching the field demonstrations I was bothered by the fact that it seemed no one knew how to stand out of the way.

Galen seen your truck and trailer with the high clearance tractor but didn't see you, sorry I missed ya
 
Sorry I missed you. I spent some time looking around with my brother. Did you see my original CA? My dad bought it new in 1952. It did a ton of plowing, cultivating, hauling and everything else. The motor has never been touched and it doesn't even smoke.
