Pat.

Yes he did a great job with the shovel, and i was there to help out as well on a 977 loader and a 516 backhoe.
The new dock is located just past the bunk house and before the lower field and the digging area.

I hope everyone can come there are some new things to see like a IH dealership along with some tracked logging arches, tracked log bunks, and some very neat and rare tractors.

Hey Erik,
When can we start bringing stuff in? Can we leave some stuff there until monday? (can't move oversize on sunday)
I think I'm gonna bring the 955 as well as the D7. I am also gonna drag along Bill's grader, unless something changes.

Thanks,
Todd

Todd,

You can start hauling anytime.
And it will be no problem to pickup anytime next week.

I have forgot to mention that we will have a Chapter Meeting 10 am on Saturday under the Chapter Banner!
Please come by even if you are not a member and at least say Hello!

We are loaded and ready to head towards Carthage early tomorrow morning. Everyone have a safe trip and we will see you at the show!


Have a good evening......Bill

Here a few pics more to come later.

Chapter 12,

Thanks for the great day! It was good to see everyone again.

Man...that Holt 60 was awesome! Never before have I seen so many belts, chains and gears all turning at the same time! A massive display of an engineering marvel! Thanks Ken for getting that beautiful machine out and running. That's what makes this show so great!

Here are a few of the pictures I took yesterday.

Erik and Pat:

Thanks for posting the pictures it looks like a great show. I look forward to coming out to Carthage next year for ACMOC 2013.

Erik, I want to see the pictures of you on the Holt 60. Justin called and said you had a grin from ear to ear when you were driving it around. You will be ready to be in charge of a Holt 75 in Woodland for the 2014 show. Justin also said the Cat guys were very organized and did a great job with the ACMOC display.

Tom

Tom,
Here are a couple pics of someone with a big smile on his face !
Everyone had a great time! Weather was perfect!

Have a good day......Bill

Tom,

It was alot of fun running the 60, i also learned alot from justin, he is very smart and really knows his pre 1930 tractors.
Without Justin's leadership many of the tractors would not have been up and running like the Holt 60 and the Russell Gas tractor.
I am not sure if he was able to get the 60 plowing due to the lack of time but he was able to put her in the tractor pull with some air time under the front wheel.

I will be busy hauling several loads of cats today but as soon as i can i will post more pictures.

The show was a great deal of fun for all, the weather was perfect, most if not all machines performed as they should, and alot of kids(Big and Small) were able to create memories to last a life time! We look forward to planning next years show with only 360 days to go!
