Both my wife and I will be there. Looking forward to it!
Sweetness, we have a very impressive line up of tractors for the Parade this year. As of now we have 4 big Holt Tiller Wheels, Best 75, Couple of Best 60's, Couple of Best 30's, Holt Exp, Couple of Holt 45's, Best 75 ROUND WHEEL, Don Hunter's Holt Steamer, Cat 60's, 30's, 20, 22s including side seat, 7C, 1D high 15, Chad's High 22, 1908 Gas Traction (oldest one in the world), 35-70 Minn, 15-30 Rumely, Sandusky, 25-50 Avery, Holt 30, 10-20 Titan, whatever Jess is bringing (shhh, lets keep it quiet until it hits the road), Case 75 steamer, Case cross motor 12-20, Glen's DW 6 dozer as the clean up tractor and some more stuff.
This is our 80th parade and the Gas Traction has been in each parade to date. Hopefully lots of you guys can come on out to the parade on October 9th and see us.
Rumor has it that Jess, Willie, Glen and few others (Matt and Doug are you reading this) and I might be plotting to put on a "little show" up the road in Woodland in 2011 with the hope that we can put on a bit bigger show in say 2014. That could be fun!!:clock:
It looks like we will have 20-30 horse/mule teams this year pulling all kinds of neat wagons including our 1862 Conestoga wagon that brought a local family over Donner Pass back in the day. Our local woodworkers also are finishing up the restoration of a 19th century military wagon that will be making its first parade in its new clothes. Last year the same Central Coast Woodworkers restored a water wagon that will be in the parade this year.
There is lots of good stuff to do and see before, during and after the parade. Hope to see lots of you here.
Hey guys, sounds like a really good time. Unfortunatly we are unable to make it. Things are pretty busy trying to get wrapped up before the rain season.
Thanks alot for the invite Tom! Hopefully next year
Matt:
We are putting the band back together and putting on a show in Woodland in 2011. It will not be the BSOT---but we will build up to a National in 2014. We hope that you and Doug are in the game. We will miss you in PR but we will have lots of fun.
Tulare in April will feature Cats and then we will do Woodland. Here are to lots of great times in 2011 with our great friends.

Tom, your truck drivers will be standing by ready to go 😊
I cant go i had to puss out. But i still want to thank jess and his family for the invite. Thanks guys till nxt time or the weekend after!
Tom,
Well everything is a go to bring down the "?????". I think it would have been easier to move Pioneer Day to Woodland. We were having the typical state permitting problems until I told them " We're on a mission from Tom " Keep you posted I'll let you know when we're leaving

Tom,
We're loaded up and on our way.
