Red: Thank you, I'm here because I enjoy being here. That trucking was getting bit much, thus I'm happy not to be there anymore. When I went there he didn't have enough work to attract some young person as a full time job. As I told Tony back in the fall, you've increased and I've decreased. One week last summer I made 2 trips to Detroit and 4 to Hogtown. Got caught 4:30 pm Fri. of a holliday weekend at Allen St., didn't get home until 10 pm, and at 2 am Sat. was headed back to Toronto with another trailer. The 8 year old Mack may take that but the 63 year old flesh is another matter. It was fun, he was a great guy to work for, we had a lot of good laughs. We always had this little thing going about who was the biggest tight wad, a scotsman or a dutchman. It had gone from about 35 hours per week to 60+. He's got a much younger guy there now, seems to be working out. I have a little job lined up for the summer, going to take a bit more time for me and the Mrs., do a bit more gardening, do a bit more traveling, maybe even invade some of the territory of these YT guys. I don't sleep well away from my own bed, never have, Marg. can tell you a hillarious story about the 3rd night of our honeymoon, almost 41 years ago in Cape Cod. We are planning 3 to 5 day trips. Want to circumnavigate each of Lakes Michigan, Erie and Ontario, and straight south to MO and KY for starters. I've never had a look at northern ON either, so maybe a journey around Huron. As you can see your not far off that beaten path. If I have the Buick you'll know I am a tourist, with the F-150 I'm likely tractor parts shopping.

Show Coverage: Godfrey, Illinois Country Days - by Cindy Ladage. Except for last fourth of July's Old Gold show in Springfield, Illinois, I don't remember when it was so hot. Nevertheless, the heat didn't keep vendors and visitors alike from enjoying the third annual Country Day's Event. Jane Elliott said the event was originally a one man show. "Barry Seiler, owner of Country Town Farm Supply store used to invite people up to the Johne Deere store. He would give hats and a free meal for everyone that brings a tractor." Elliott said while this
