All,

I recently inquired about Santa Margarita for next year but I missed asking about Tulare 2016.

I have seen their web site and see the show is "happening" but now I wish to ask if there will be any "Caterpiller" (ACMOC) presence there for 2016, even unofficially?

I remmber that the last show was a bit questionable due to the show people being what I call SILLY about exhibitors and insurance and so forth, but what about a play area and the usual interest most of us Cat nuts consider fun. Anyone have any updated info?

I am mainly asking becasue I am now able to go to both shows (since I retuired earlier this year) but is the Tulare show work considering?

We are planning on bringing another cat down from Idaho next year for the show. Hope to encourage more folks from Cal. to participate. It was a good show this and can only get better if you participate. Ed& Jan:usa2:

Hey Gang,

Why would leaving the rat race behind, traveling to a tractor show, meeting up with friends who like old tractors, looking at other's cool stuff, and getting a chance to run your's or other's tractors in the dirt be called FUN??? Heck just watching Garlic Pete gain pounds of grease on his clothes and hair by the hour is a show in it's self. Watching the master of tractor show repair shouldn't be missed. It always amazes me how Garlic figures out the repair and gets it done. Then there is Garlic Mom's glowing cheeks as she is off on her missions of giving and smiling, with some laughter mixed in. Why would anyone call this Fun??? Ok Garlic, count me in!!!

Hey Glen,

Any chance that Mary Ann will be at Tulare too? To me it would be a double WOW if she was at Tulare AND Santa Margarita next year.😄😄😄😄

Of course I am glad to volunteer to drive her in the parades....:fish2:

Hey Walt,

I wasn't thinking of bringing Mary Ann. Conserving fuel for Santa Margarita, but if you want to fill the tanks on my transport and Mary Ann, I'd make sure your name was in the hat for the parade operator draw. Never know, your name could be drawn.

Hi, Glen.
I sorta get the impression that Mary Ann has set a heart a-throbbin' over there in 'Harry-Zoner'. If yer see Walt walkin' inter lamp posts and such like and his eyes is all glazed over and Mary Ann is anywhere within a 200-mile radius, you'll know the reason why. LOL.

Just my 0.02.

Pops, Pete and I take our toys directly to Santa Margarita after Tulare to help cut down on fuel cost. If work is still slow for me I'll probably leave my travel trailer at Tulare and truck some loads to SM. I'll be happy to help move some of your stuff too.

Hey Willowhic,

Glen,

You are picking on Garlic Pete and it sure didn't take OilSlick long to jump in. I think there could have been a fraction of jealousy there!
