I had to go back and find that article in that issue. I read it obviously, but never made the connection that it was written by someone local, let alone someone who would come to the show. I initially took it for a great story on the tractors. 

It was nice to meet you JJ. I would've liked to talk more had the parade not started and I had to get moving. I grew up on a farm, spent my teenage years working on other farms, and now just hobby hay and work on tractors. Occasionally I'll work for a neighboring farmer. 

I do like to see more Olivers. We also have Molines (UTU, ZAU, RTI, Super JetStar 3). One ford (871 diesel) and 1 Farmall (C).
