 I spoke with probably eight or nine club members. I think this is the most Lawn and garden they have ever had and some of the locals and regulars for this show were surprised hand some mentioned to me that they have Lawn and garden equipment they never considered bringing. I bet The garden area here grows in the future. I am happy to see as many allis machines as we have had.

I've been there two days now and sure I've missed a lot so much going on all the time

If you haven't been hear I strongly recommend it , hope someone posts how many tractors they have there.

Sorry I missed meeting everyone but that was my intentions to meet everyone .

I left early and stopped in St Johns and visited with Mr Patterson.

Looks like you had much the same weather as many of the Missouri tractor shows last fall. I skipped showing at our GOTO last year due to the mud. No pics of the post hole digger????  Was that Mike Wells?

Yes, the A-10 is Michael's.  We also had a neat chance to get the forklifts and trenchers together.  

Today the weather was amazing...the crowd was twice what we saw Saturday.  I registered another machine this morning at 9a and it was nearly #1900.  Im certain they soared past 2000 tractors today and they still have tomorrow to go. 

I had a fantastic time meeting so many new folks and catching up with many others.  On froday we counted juat shy of 100 of our garden tractors and we had many more show today.  The other brands found our area too and we had a lot of lawn and garden lined up. 

I personally met Allis folks from these States, and Ontario Canada:

Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Pennsilvania, New York, Nebraska, Iowa, Minnesota, Kentucky...sadly, I didnt run into anyone representing WI. Guess we have to take the party to them 😉

This is three of the four tractors Michael brought from Nebraska...not sure there is a better way to fit more awesome into one shot.  The loader, trencher, forklift and post hole digger all together...probably for the first time in history.

Here is his Post Hole Digger.  A B-12 and Danuser A-10 auger.
