Thanks for the pics. What an awesome group. Looks like the chow hounds were well fed and everyone enjoyed the bash!!!

Thanks for making a great day guys. For those that missed it. Maybe next year👍 It really was a fun day.
A great group of guys

Hi, Folks.
Another great event hosted by Tractor Don, LOTZA good people in attendance, GOOD food, some good ol'-fashioned BS-ing and some interesting machines, including an 18A Cat D9 recently saved from the scrapper - in running condition. Scrap THAT????????????????? Some people just got NO respect for the finer things in life.

I didn't get to take as many photos as I usually manage 'coz people kept wanting to 'havachat'. But, I did find these two skulking out the front onna truck:

Thank you, Don, and all who helped make it a great day, including those who helped by simply being there.

Just my 0.02.


 

Just an FYI boys and girls, both tractors pictured on the "rocket launcher" truck bed were re-homed that same day. Watsonville, CA area is where they will reside now.
I am amazed that I managed to leave with a very full stomach and my wallet and check books were still full as well. I feel like JuiceMan's adoption agency did well that day. Now I need to follow up on the rest of the wants/needs on my list that some party goers requested...JM.

Juiceman, you left with a full wallet 🤔 I would have sold you that 5 roller. To late now 🤓🤓

Deas, thanks for that delicious cake and keeping a bunch of them guys occupied😁 

Hi, Folks.

Never too late...I will admit, I did take a stroll over to admire the beefy grousers. I kept my distance, as I did not want my saliva to get on it and make it rusty.
It was fun to see someone else's projects. Note to myself to not bring any of the "spicy" hot links next time. Holy crap, I tried some last night and HUGE beads of sweat boiling from the back of my scalp! The Elk sausage? you provided was far better. That cake got a lot of attention! JM

Great little event!!! Thanks TractorDon for putting it on!!! It was a great opportunity for me to meet some of the legends on here that have helped me with technical advice, documents and such. Great to put faces to names. I’m thankful to you all and can’t wait to catch up with you all again at future events!
