Well, it's been a year since I posted the last pics:laughing:, so here's this years, hope everybody enjoys them as much as I did taking them. This is gonna take awhile, so be patient!

Patience...

Just so ya'll will know, I'm posting these 16 at a time. I took the pictures as I was walking through the fairgrounds/buildings (NC state fairgrounds in Raleigh), and I'm downloading the pictures in the order I took them mostly. There's no rhyme or reason to anything as far as grouping of manufacturers/makes. I was just snapping 'em off as fast as I could...

If some pictures are too dark I'm sorry, the lighting played heck with my auto-flash setting on my camera...

What I love about this show is it's all about farming equipment. There's definitely an aftermarket/vendor presence as far as fertilizer, crop management, etc., but to us it's all about the tractors/implements...

If you see multiple pictures of the same model, don't get upset! Often I had to leave and come back because of pedestrian traffic and take several shots of some tractors to get a clear shot...

Now I've got a bunch more to load, but I'm trying to service the John Deere with Daddy right now, so if I have to leave, I'll be back soon...

We had a great time at the show, the weather was beautiful. It was crowded, which was good, but not so bad that you couldn't move easily...

 

[77transam]

Once again, I apologize if some pictures are dark...

This show is all about new stuff, but there is always a couple of nicely restored tractors to drool over...

Y'know it's funny, I took all these pictures but I still know I missed ALOT! I could go all 3 days and still not see everything.:confused2:

 

[77transam]

Lots of colors that's for sure!

thanks for sharing, I believe there is a show comming up here in a few weeks, hoping to make it.

Amazing how varied and distinctive all the tractors are today. We were like kids in a candy store, but with no money!:laughing:

The young lady in the first picture is Miss Jessie, she was representing Wake Tech Community College's John Deere Tech program. I conned her out of a purty green JD hat!!!

David, you did a great job of taking pictures, organizing, and presenting them in a way that made me feel like I'd been at the show. GREAT JOB! Thanks!:thumbsup:
