On Sunday, my brother-in-law & I took some of our antique tractors out to the old tractor and machinery display area at Dakota Fest, the annual farm equipment show that is held in our area. As I drove my son's 1936 F-12 past some new red Magnums that were on display to get it to the area where the older tractors & machinery are parked, it looked to me like all the new ones were bowing to their great grandpa. I didn't slow down to let them admire the old girl, but just continued to drive past in road gear at a blazing 3 1/2 MPH. There are about 60 old tractors in the display, with almost every color represented. Its great to see the old ones among all the modern stuff. It definately highlights some of the history of the ag industry. (My $0.02 worth. jal-SD)
