I had the gps location saved on my Garmin but lost them on my last update. Anyone got the gps coordinates or a nearest address that I could plug into my Garmin

You can put in 30 old peterborough rd . That will get you within a half mile of the show on rt 101 . Then just look for the signs and tractors.
As for the weather I was there all day,no rain. The towns within ten miles had thunder storms, but not even a dark cloud at the show. I think we will be ok for weather. Eds weather gods have been with us in the past. Matt

Tornado watch issued until 9 tonight said my friend Nichole Davis the NECN weather person. And she said the weather is supposed to be not so good Saturday. I am so sorry that bad weather has moved into New England. I was planning on coming up tonight...we'll see what tomorrow morning is like. :censored:
Chris

Please be safe and keep tuned into the weather channel for tornado alerts!!!

Hey Chris.... thanks for the weather report :evil: but the radar shows it should all be gone shortly and the sun is actually peeking out in the big city. Guess I have no excuse for not tearing down the tranny tonight.

I learned a long time ago to never make plans around a weather guessers 'predictions'. Besides, it's my last chance to win a very nice yeller long stripe :lol:

That certain somebody has made his entry . He is parked and ready to grind corn. We had some heavy rain but I think that will just keep the dust down! Parts vendors are there and have some nice things. We tested out the pulling track with a bn ,super c ,two h's and a 300 utility. That is what this club is all about , a bunch of people getting together and just enjoying each others company, weather it is repairing a tractor ,talking about your new find ,fun pulling or just being withlike minded people.

Thanks Mike and Matt for putting on an EXCELLENT show. Probably you had some help?? :lol:

Mike, the posters you gave me worked pretty well. One went up in the local Cub Cadet dealer, the family had owned the IH dealership in the big city years ago and a pretty large group of them showed up. They were very impressed with the event!

Great show, even though Mother Nature wasn't on her best behavior. Rob, thanks for the unlicked donuts. Mike, yours weren't licked, and plastic wrapped, for proof! Friday's rain chased a lot of tractors away, but the number was still impressive. Thanks, Matt and crew, for your hard work. Ed

Thankyou to all who came to the show! Even though we did have a few brief 2 or 3 inches of rain we managed to get in 7am to about 315pm without rain, and after a few quick showers Sunday morning the sun was out and we had a great day. I did see a green flash across the field at about 1. That was Ed leaving beforeI got any corn meal . My wife is not happy! I will get some at the Francis Farm show, so you will have to put up with me again Ed. Matt

Thanks,Rob and Matt,for posting the pictures--as usual I stayed in the vendor area and didn't get to see many tractors until Sunday morning. Many folks come Sat. early,then head out late afternoon,probably 40-50 tractors left before it started to rain.
Also many thanks to the real tractor guys that showed up regardless of the forecast.Those that put the show on have to be there no matter what the weather is and we can't postpone it to the next weekend. Thanks again to all that showed up,hope you had a good time.
Mike
