This is level sandy loan soil in soybeans, should be easy plowing which is always more fun.

The first plow days in our area is over and found it took a bit to put everything together. The weather was great and plowing conditions were good.

We had a good variety of tractors and a few custom jobs w/equipment. Thanks to all for your help and the good times. Who knows, maybe next year???

A <font size="+1">HUGE</font> thanks to the Petersons for having us down this weekend to plow. Heck, we even go fed. If there's a prettier place to go plow, I haven't been there yet.

Here's a few pics from the Plow Day. Thank you very much Glenn for hosting !!!!!!!
My 125 did make it a couple rounds before I changed to the 122. My dad's Red Original looks VERY Nice!

As Glenn said below there was a very good variety of colors. I think we had 19 tractors in the parade and a total of about 28 total.

thanks to Glen, for a great time, Every one was happy to be there!! all had a great time as you can tell by the smiles from Jessica the only lady plowing

Here are her brothers Ryan (shading his eyes) and Casey sitting on Ryan's nice 122.

And their Dad, Bob on Ryan's 122

here's Casey on the 149, with Jessica walking along side, picking up corn stubble. More drivers than tractors.

My Red Original did great until I started plugging up underneath with bean stalks. Not enough clearace and then when we moved to the corn stalks, I had already switched to the 70 and one of the youngsters drove the Original around.
Once again, Glen -- thank you
