I would love to go into way more detail about these pictures but it is currently 10:54pm. I
want need to shower yet (lol). I have to get up at 5:45am tomorrow morning. I just don't feel like it nor do I have the time. Anywho, this fellow here is cultivating. Also his roan team came from my in-law's JI Bar Ranch.
Six hitched to a drill! This was probably one of my favorite parts of the whole week. Also a bit nerve wracking as the drove them through the parade, but all went well! My Hubby got to drive them along with two other guys.
My in-law's in the Democrat. Back in the day this is what they called the 'Buckboard'.
<3
Just breath taking!
The guys who worked together to drive them through the parade. Since being hitched six across is not something we do regularly, they each drove a team individually but were all hooked to the drill together.
Combine harvester.
Three horse binder. Cuts the crop and spits it out into piles that are later stooked.
A hearse.
Three generations.
Pitching sheaves onto the rack to bring to the Threshing machine.
Grain wagon pulled by a pair of feisty little Haflingers.
This was a School Bus believe it or not!
Another Democrat, a fancier one that 'richer' people would have drove back in the day.
Drill.
Cultivator.
Land roller.
String of three pack mules.
Four horse Discer.
Last but not least, an outrider! :)
I have soooooo many more pictures but that's all for tonight .
