Said that I am to take her to Hamilton Missouri this fall to the Missouri Star quilting shop. Haven't etched a date in stone yet. My question to my fellow allis enthusiasts is this, do any of you have wives wanting to go there too, and if so, would coordinating a time be something that would interest you, as to meet up there. (Obviously to find something to do other than quilt shopping)
And, is anyone on here in the vicinity of Hamilton, who would be interested in meeting up with me to go do something Allis chalmers related? Thanks, Darrel |

Come about a hour south and be in AC heaven. Terry Implement in Gallatin also has tractors that they have collected. A shed or two full.

friend of ours hires out to haul Amish to stores, jobs and whatever. He took a lady and her young son to a sewing store a couple of weeks ago and as the son got out of the vehicle he looked at out friend and said " you know we're going to be her a while don't you".

o-k buddy....I asked the old lady.....oooooops....I mean the loving wife about this and she said: she ws there with on a bus trip with a bunch of others one day...they call it the QUILT CAPITAL OF THE USA! A lady and her hubby came from CA and started a quilt store there, as time passed they opened another and another, says there's 8-13 stores there now, each has a different type/kind of material. they put 30 long arm quilting machines in a large storage warehouse, and run 2 shifts a day thre 6-7 days a week and have a waiting list, said they do very good work. they also put in a husband lounge with pool tables, recliners, tv's, lots of things to cater to the husbands while their wives shop! yeah, you'll prolly spend a whole day there and more! it's a rule in the town that all quilters have the right of way and all traffic must stop for them. these people saved a dying town and the town really caters to them. it's a town of about 900 folks. take lots of money and if you drive a small car, you may hafta rent a UHAUL trailer before going home! Good luck buddy! have a great time! oh...and there is a JCPENNY museum there too, that's where they started out from.

Don't want to step on yer toes good buddy, but Hamilton was where James Cash Penny was born. Then he ventured west to start up a store in Kemmerer Wyoming and then....... Quite a lot of information in the museum about his life, his grandparents and where it all began. It is a museum to honor its most famous citizen. Well worth the hours if you're a history buff,,,,,

Thank you Ted I knew that did not sound right. O'l JC up set the apple cart so to speak. He was open on SUNDAY. Way the heck and gone in the olden days when everything was closed on Sunday. Because he started in a western mining town,
an the nasty old mine bosses worked the miners 6 days a week. An they had no time to buy new clothes. So O'l JC open up on Sunday. All from a Idaho born Mormon with a PHD from Cornel in Ag Econ. I sure don't know were or why Doc dropped that in lecture but I do know he did. |

More good info, guys. Thanks.
Maybe I will go on a little scavenger hunt for a certain snow machine around Blair NE either coming or going. Can't get piss pounded with snow again this winter like we did last winter. Ugh. Darrel |
