Tractor Show

Last week on Friday I took the day off and we headed to Ohio to a tractor show. 
 They had some of the antique threshers and steam engines.  It's not really my thing, but I know my hubby wanted to go and the friends he had lined up to go with fell through.  
So, for as many quilt shops he has gone to, I sucked it up and we went to the tractor show.  
It was a beautiful, summer day and I got to spend it hanging out with one of my favorite people! 
 We packed a picnic lunch and off we went!

We were greeted with this row of BEASTS!  LOL.  I just loved this view.


There was a giant cow!  Also a Flea Market of sorts.  You name it and it seemed to be there!


I even found this amazing Double Wedding Ring antique quilt with this 
unique prairie point type edging. 
 I am so regretting that I did not buy it, just so I could study this edge treatment!
  Limited funding now that we are a one income family though, so there's that. 
 Pictures will have to do.


Unique joining too.


Just a totally cool quilt.


 Oh, *finally* lunch time.  We set up our table and took out our lunch.  YUM.  
Healthy food and great company!


There was a tractor "pull" between some children and a steam engine.  So cute!


I especially got a kick out of the Amish kids participating.

It was a great day spent with a great man!  Have you ever gone to a tractor show?
