Here are a couple of pictures of us Michiganders.
Hopefully I got everyone's handle right this year.
If not, just let me know and I'll fix them.
I'll post some more pictures from the show a little later.
I have to go fix one of my tractors first.
It was nice to see you all and put a face with the name!

Good looking crew there! Hey Randy, how'ed they talk ya into taken a picture with an IH backdrop? No Olivers there?
Thanks for the great pictures Royse.

Speedy Gonzalez with the pictures. I stopped in StJohns for groceries and TSC for some oil, and went home and here they are already.

rrlund · Aug 17, 2013

Ya,they were in front of us so we were facing them. Couldn't take our eyes off of'em. lol

There were a few more who showed up later but we didn't think to get pictures. Maybe somebody else did.

If anybody has a request for a picture of something else,I took a bunch. If I don't have a picture of it,maybe Royce or somebody has.

MrJDMan80 · Aug 17, 2013

How bout a pic of the 20_40 case? I was busy fixing the mag while you guys got together. Sorry I missed every one.

Oh-oh. That might be one I didn't get. A steamer? I got a lot of the big gassers but it didn't cross my mind to get the steamers.

johnlobb · Aug 17, 2013

I'll tell ya.. There were some of the prettiest Oliver 66 and 77's I've ever seen!

Rick Kr · Aug 17, 2013

I was talking to my cousins a few rows over. I went back and Jack was there then Randy and his wife came back.

Stayed til 4:30 or so.

Must have been in excess of 1500 show tractors. Those sheets of paper that were on every one with the owners name and what not were numbered. I saw them as low as 40 and as high as 1500 and something.

Here's a couple more of the more unusual entries.
Big John in front of the johns and the original Minneapolis Moline "jeep".

Joe W. · Aug 17, 2013

I got there about noon, didn't know where to look so I walked all over the tractor display areas, tuckered myself out and didn't see "the awning". Must be you had to be there last year to know where to go this year. Enjoyed the displays and the flea market. Left about 4:30 p.m.

rrlund · Aug 17, 2013

We were WAY out in the southeast corner of the grounds next to the portable john,behind a John Deere D and an Oliver 70. Jack had a trailer with some parts in it hooked behind the D.

Royse · Aug 17, 2013

Sorry we missed you Joe. If you saw those two Minnie Moe's, the
high crop and the jeep, you were within 100 feet of us or so!
I'll probably be there again next year, maybe we'll get a bigger picture!

looks like ya all had a good get together. nice weather too! Thanks for sharing!

DoubleR · Aug 17, 2013

Sorry I had to leave early but it was nice to meet a few of you anyway. I was there at 830 am but had to leave by noon. Everyone I did meet was pleasant to talk to and just seemed like a normal guy with the common interest we all seem to have. I wish I could have been able to meet the rest of the gang.
I'm not a big JD guy but the 830 on steel was probably the most unique thing I saw today. I was busy telling some long story to a vendor when I seen a young lady drive by with it. I didn't get a chance to look it over good.

MrJDMan80 · Aug 17, 2013

Not a steamer, Steamers don't have mags. The case was in front of the Baker barn. We used it to thresh with at 1. It was right next to the 830 on steel.

Paul from MI · Aug 17, 2013

It was so good to meet all you guys (and the gals too)and get to know you all. I'm looking forward to next year already. Royse, Thanks for your work with the pictures and teaching me which way is East.
Paul

Royse · Aug 17, 2013

It was really nice to meet you too Paul.
We'll be up at Blanchard next Saturday if you feel like joining us.
RRLund has threatened to make me use a pitchfork!

Royse · Aug 17, 2013

mrjdman80, I don't think I got a picture of it either, but I have one
I'm not sure of, so if you want to look, I posted pictures here: Oakley Show

redtom · Aug 17, 2013

Wasn't there last year. It was just a matter of walking...a lot, until you happened upon them.

redtom · Aug 17, 2013

It was a pleasure meeting you all. I would've liked to stay all day and visit but family duties called. Thanks for posting the nice pics.

rrlund · Aug 18, 2013

Wasn't one of these was it? There was a Huber of the other side of the door and an Aultman Taylor out back.

J.Wondergem · Aug 18, 2013

Nice meeting every one of you and thanks for the photos. I got to meet Mrjdman80 after everyone was gone and a nice talk with him. Sounds like he'll be there again next year.

Super Trucker · Aug 18, 2013

Nice pics there Royse . Maybe one of these years I can convince the wife to have her B day there. I'd like to be in one of the ytr's pics. If your in Blanchard look for the Fordson gang some of them will be there. My good friend Joe is sure to bring his Silver King to pull. You and rrlund really need to make our last pull in oct for the pumpkin pull.

Anonymous-0 · Aug 18, 2013

Enjoyed meeting all you guys, wish I could have stayed a little longer but I had to get home.

Royse · Aug 18, 2013

You and her are both welcome to join us Aaron!
I'm planning to be at Blanchard Saturday if it doesn't rain too hard.
First weekend in October for the pumpkin pulls, looks like a hoot to me!
Thanks for this picture of them!

MrJDMan80 · Aug 18, 2013

MrJDMan80 · Aug 18, 2013

MrJDMan80 · Aug 18, 2013
