 [attachment=67487]IMG_5463.jpg[/attachment] [attachment=67488]IMG_5457.jpg[/attachment]  Greetings all, I made the trek to the show Saturday am without any heavy metal in tow. My yellow collection is down to the "Last serial numbered '34 Cat 22"(sale forum)(engine only, trans is earlier '34) and a '29 Cat TEN with local history near me (San Fernando Valley, CA) that is a keeper. The on the road pics that member "sheddcanyon" posted in the related Tulare tractor show discussion of Best/Holt/Caterpillar oldies on rigs were all present in Tulare. They all ran in the Sat am parade except for the Cat 5 ton. I would say there was a good post covid member turn out and I believe I had a sighting of Exec member "janmeermans" right before parade start. I stayed long enough to eavesdrop on several conversations and donate a disassembled '48 D4-6U radiator that I brought to the show to a '48 D4 owner in a local Fresno, California antique farm equipment club. I wish I had more pics to share. The high-clearance Cat Ten intrigued me as well as the difference between the small and big Cat Fifteen variants. Stay well! Cheers!

Thanks for the neat photos. Lots of good looking equipment. Might be a Guinness record with 4 Cat tractors and Cat 40 scrapers together.

Thank you for posting photos Don.  Myself and everyone thank you MUCH for the tasty strawberries and artichokes. That was my dinner and dessert when I got home.
Sorry we did not get to visit or drive in the dig area as much as we wanted to, but really appreciate you took time out from your busy schedule to join in.
Jim: There were 5 D4/40 combos there, someone will share photos of the lineup. We were afraid the girls were not going to let us drive them after one photo session...hahaha.
I think I brought 11 Cats to the show, but someone else can chime in on the actual number and full story. JM

 [attachment=67494]14E90791-7EAA-4D58-816D-CE1940C605A0.jpeg[/attachment]Best Tulare show in at least 5 years.
The D4 & 40 scraper line up was Impressive as was the setup at the digging Area good job Juiceman!
Great tractor line up including Best 25,Best40 Best 60, Holt 5 ton, several 7C 15s and 8C 20s 10s and orchard caterpillars too.
I enjoyed watching my grandson driving his 7C 15. In the parade I think he had the most fun cruising around in the model a pick up. Skinner

  Thank you for your time and equipment and your driver Juiceman.  That was a generous effort. Least I could do was bring a few strawberries and some artichokes[img]/media/kunena/emoticons/smile.png[/img] I was good with a little seat time on Roberts 7U and 40 scraper Very nice. But the dirt marshal didn't like what I was doing [img]/media/kunena/emoticons/tongue.png[/img] Never ran a 40 scraper had to get a feel for the controls and how the package reacted. Needed more that 2 passes to figure it out.  I would disagree with his suggestion of floating with apron closed though. Great show, hope you will make Santa Margarita. I hope too be there.
Thanks again to all involved in making a great show happen.

***Too bad you did not make it. We did have a very nice gal join us in the "Dig" that was well equipped with a razor sharp BUCK knife she would have/could have performed leg surgery on you if needed***

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
