I think I'll get a tin roof.
The idea of seeing her mouth move and not hearing a thing sounds great. |

I have also found the best tractor show is going out to the barn and look at my tractors.

Did the hail beat up your tractors? I would say there were alot of unhappy campers. People go a little too far if you ask me. This one guy at our show has a bigger 2 cylinder John Deere diesel and he is so obsessed with keeping it spotless that he has a feather duster mounted on it. I mean I would be mad if it hailed and beat up my tractor but when it comes to getting them dirty that is just part of being a tractor. A tractor that is kept out of the dirt where it belongs is like tying a sheep dog up infront of a field cows, its just not right. ------------- 1937 WC, 1950 CA, 1959 D14, 1967 190XT, 2006 Ram 3500 |

Storm's are a big problem with Woody.When we take Him to shows .If we can not get him inside a building then I do need to put up my own tent .With sides that roll down .Always keep the trailer near by, right in front of tractor if there are going to be bad storms ,so we can get in trailer ASAP .As for dust at show's cleaning dust is part of the job.(just can not wash him down !!! Got to stay way from steam engines.LOL !!!
BTW ,will only be doing 2 show's this year and they will be close by home here.
