i didnt think that this event would need to be a 2 part post, but there are just so many cool tractor photos that cutting it short is not an option
here we go
i found out that my dads band.... grassfyre, was playing at this event
in this link you will find a schedule of events where it lists bluegrass festival sunday 2:00 pm
pooch JP and pooch raspberry met me there as they have known my dad since we were teens
i decide to surprise my dad as this event is only about one hour drive and i havent seen my pa and step mum in a long time;
maybe almost a year. i dont know.
here are a few shots of the tractor pull
no, thats not my dad....but they are cute
its a pretty serious event in these parts

They ARE awesome! I would love this event...how down home can you get? These tractors have real personality....like all the old farmers too!
ReplyDeleteWhoa! Pull up the horses...that's a lot of tractors!!! We have a tractor parade in Des Moines every summer...that's a trip!
ReplyDeleteI never thought about photographing a tractor but you are right, some of them are really cool..
ReplyDeleteI had no idea about this variety! For me a tractor was just a tractor and never paid them much attention, but from now on I have to look at them with different eyes. Thank you! :-)
ReplyDeletetractors are the COOLEST! I went to a tractor pull and witnessed onw tractor pull itself in half!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots. So many of tractors all in one place. Great event.

ReplyDeleteRegarding your comment:
ReplyDeleteThere is this probably american movie where a guy wearing a circus outfit(?) walks on a wire above Niagara Falls. I was just a kid but I can still 'see' this scene. Years later I watched 'Niagara' starring Marilyn Monroe and Joseph Cotten on tv and I thought I couldn't miss these falls but haven't visited them so far...
Well, I'm not sure I can wrap my head around tractor love....
ReplyDeletebut the sexiest men alive photos...I could wrap my arms around that..hehe
