• I have lots of footage to sort through (about 85 videos on my phone), but here’s a sample of everything from the steam up today (not all steam)
  
  We left at 2:30 this morning for the 650 mile round trip, 9-1/2 hours of driving

• 'North Dakota' sounds like you went to the Wild West Nick
  
  Really enjoyed that, some great looking engines and how long was one of those drive belts! Boys looked liked they had a great time and I bet you did too
  
  You must have been tired when you got home with a 2.30am start!! but I bet it was all worth it with a day of memories like that.

• Well, you did pick my favorite of the 3 at the show, that’s a 1/2 scale 110 HP that belongs to Jim Briden (owner of Larson Welding)
  
  Here he is (on the right) with one of his grandsons operating. There is a cab for it, but his grandsons are big guys and it’s probably not too comfortable inside the cab...

  Jim also has a full size 110 in his living room. And yes it does go outside and gets fired up

• Here’s a 1925 D that recently had a complete mechanical restoration. Was not given a full pull on the prony brake, more of a break in run. Hope to find a 1929 of this someday just like my great grandpa started farming with...
