Re: Farm Days: Who\'s going?

Hey Pete,

Just as a reminder for those of us who can't be there /w3tcompact/icons/sad.gif. Pictures - take a bunch of pictures! Individual shots, group shots, guys on tractor shots, guys eating burger shots, guys drinking.....oh, you get the idea!

We may not be there in person, but we're there in spirit! /w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif

Re: Farm Days: Who\'s going?

Against her better judgment /w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif, my wife will also be attending. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif But we have to make our collective mind up, willl it be 'noonish' or 12:30 PM at the NH display? I don't want to be late. /w3tcompact/icons/eyes.gif Plus letting my wife sleep that extra 30 minutes might be the difference between life and death. /w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif

I'm going - up in the air on day - wife wants to go and have to coordinate. Maybe muhammed should have had some t shirts for tractorbynet.com made up so we would recognize each other!

Well, it sounds like you'd have a good chance of meeting us if you introduced yourself to anyone in a navy ballcap!

Re: Farm Days: Who\'s going & Big Auction 8/8 @ 3pm

The last few years, they've had the auctions right next to the Empire Farm property... only problem you get tired, want to go home... and not spend xx amount hours at an auction...

Last year it was probably 95 degrees or so (not kidding!)...

So bring your trucks guys... /w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif

Re: Farm Days: Who\'s going?

If you guys are going to be in the area anyway, and you like antique tractors, you might also want to check out this show:

August 8-11
NEW YORK STEAM ENGINE ASSN. 42ND ANNUAL PAGEANT OF STEAM - 5 MILES EAST ON GEHAN RD. OFF RTS. 5 AND 20. CONTACT GARY LOVE, 3231 SMITH RD., CANANDAIGUA, NY 14424; (716) 394-8102

This show is only a few miles west of Geneva. They typically have a few hundred antique tractors, "hit and miss" gas engines, as well as steam traction engines and old farm implements of all kinds. I usually get there every year but I don't know if I will make it this year. This is a really good show for old tractor nuts like me.
