On Sunday April 19, 2009 my wife and I attended the plow day for the Morrow County Antique Tractor & Equipment Assoc Inc. It started at 9am, but we did not arrive until 11am. The club did a great job putting up signs for directions to the farm where it was held. Since we were not familiar with the area this was a big help. Also, there was a bucket loader available to lift the plow of and on the trailer. This makes things much easier. I started plowing shortly after we unloaded.
This was our second plow day in two days, but this was only about 45 minutes from our house. We used the same tractor that we used on Saturday. The tractor is a 1946 Massey Harris 81 RC and Moline steel wheeled plow with two (14")bottoms. I had been plowing for about an hour; then lunch was served. Nice lunch and then some time was spent talking to old and new friends. Then I returned to plowing until about 2:30pm when I stopped because of other commitments. We had a great time and enjoyed plowing myself and watching others plow. Great variety for tractors and plows were there to watch. Also got some good adice on some adjustments that i need to make on my plow.
Thanks to the club and the property owners.
