so WHAT is that ?
well..
I grew up with a man who had a passion for
"Steam & Gas Engines"
so
I confess to tearing up a WHOLE lot
this whole day..
(choking a sob or two)
and I married a man
who enjoyed the same things..
We could all go to an event like this
and my father and my husband would be lost in their own
happy world
teaching the children ALL about it..
I was super excited to learn this one
ALSO has a HUGE flee market!
and collections of all kinds
ooodles of
"things"
it was fun to walk about
to see
what was the norm..
in time gone by
and to see the massiveness of it all
the thoughtfulness
and craftsmanship of it all
super cool classic cars
and amazing engines
it's a knitting Machine!
see makes socks and cuffs
amazing!
Opa would have LOVED this!
SNAZZY!
I love it!
John Deere is so cool..
always was
hopefully
always will be
umm..
really?
that's pretty cool
choo choo
a cool washer!
i want one!
(preference... sea foam green/blue
or
pink)
stop it!
that is a hoot!
"i want to see the choo choo again "
do not despair Little Man
WE WILL see the choo choo again
he looks like he is considering
not sure if he believes
has a decision to make
ok
i believe you
for now
see
but the choo choo isn't ready yet
so..
look at THIS
sporty snow mobiles!
makes me think of
"The Shining"
why?
so freaks me out!
ok they blew the whistle!!!
there is the furnace!
hear the whistle!
the engine is hooked up to this
via this belt
which is hooked up to this
and it's going to SAW
that huge piece of wood!
the guy walks it down
see the saw going through
trimming the side down?
wow
the thought and engineering minds that designed this
were brilliant!
now we see that famed smoke!
oh the stories Opa would tell...
Princess is LOVING it!
yowza
time keeps on ticking
water pumping has come a LONG way
but some..
have embraced the event
in totally different ways
and in the end
we all had a SUPER time!
