First off may I say that i have grown up around AC and orange has been in my Family for as long as i remember.
I had the pleasure to attend the Orange Spectacular for the first time ever this weekend. I was by myself cause i was in the area for work. So i walked into the show not knowing anybody and just quite frankly in aw of the shear size of the event. I looked at every tractor and looked through every building and i cannot say enough about how well done the show was. The field Demos are awesome and Today's field demo was just amazing. The amount of orange in that small field ( I thought for sure someone was gonna hit someone else) lol. The people involved with this show are great people and the people i talked to were as nice as can be. I plan on becoming a member of the Upper Midwest AC Club (even though i am from Ks) and will spread the word in my area of the best ac tractor show in the country. The connection a person has with this old Farm equipment brings out the best in each of us. To look at a 45 plowing and it takes you back to a simpler and better time, that just brings a tear to your eye and makes you proud that you are carrying on that legacy of your grandpa or your dad owning and operating AC. I plan on bringing my family up next year and bringing my wd45. Thank you to everyone that put this show together it is unbelievable. Brett Dallman
