Texas Early Day Engine & Tractor Show

Post by Wind Charger Mike »

I displayed a few early wind electrics in Temple, Tx this weekend. Always a great show and a lot of interest in the old wind machines, this year was no exception.

Neat Mike I was wondering about Temple. I'm still not comfortable in crowds. The show in Edgewood in Nov. has been cancelled. I'd already decided I wouldn't go.

The stupid virus is creeping in closer around here. I went and got my 65+ flu shot today. Certain stores are buying it up, leaving many doctors and clinics without it. Went to the health dept. and got it. Hate going to where sick folks go, increasing the chance of infection, but been wearing a mask going to most places anyway. Like I always said, "coming soon to a town near you". It's here now.

Our doctor office had a drive by flu shot several weeks ago. I know it sounds like a drive by shooting. It was in the high school parking lot. Pulled up to the place they had the shots thy ask who you Dr. is. Rolled up your sleeve. Bing bang boom done.

My Minneapolis Moline pulled in the sled competition. also showed my hit & miss engine. Its a large show with lots of different early farm items.
If you ever get a change the 1st weekend of October each year try to attend. 3 day event.

I went a few years ago. I guess it might be the biggest show in Texas. I would also like to haul some of my stuff down there, so hopefully next year. I can park close to Mike and we could tell lies all day.

When wearing a mask, if you can smell a fart, what can it do to stop the 'rona?
