That must be a cool show.  Sawmills, tractors, planers you can't go wrong!!  That portable Meadows is a good looking machine.  Wouldn't mind having one of em

There's all kinds of stuff over several hundred acres, different venues each year.  Last year there were cutting horses and sheep herding dogs and cow dogs and an belgian 8 horse team with hardware wagon.  Fields are planted and equipment is harvesting etc.  You can sign up for busses to take you to the fields to see the "new" equipment work. There are 6 or more large buildings full of hawkers. Agricultural parts companies, pump manufacturers, boots, Bibbeys, Dungarees, knives, kitchen stuff, guys selling cookware, wood burning furnaces, cotton candy, boiled peanuts, sign-ups for drawings for 4 wheelers, ATV's, trucks, cars, mowers, and all kinds of stuff.  It's noisy and packed with people and lots of smiles.  Lots of old folks and lots of young farmers and some high school kids are all over the grounds.  The airport is next door, right over the fence.  It is a grass strip and may have one asphalt runway.  Lots of planes, helicopters and sometimes a corporate jet will take off or land.  

What a party!
