Grease Rust Steam Show

Last Saturday we visited a Grease Rust Steam Show.There were plenty of tractors for Sam to see. There was a flea market set up also. There was a very large old lock with a skeleton key at one of the booths I would have loved to have purchased to hang from one of the pegs on the peg board but it was way more than I could afford or even would have considered paying. A whopping $200.00. As you can guess I passed it up.

Sam and I always love to visit the animals of course. We so love the donkey. We would love to add a donkey to the our homestead collection of pets.

There was something so peaceful about watching this long horn just chew and chew.

The sheep was very curious and was willing to pose for its photo shoot.

This little piggy is so so cute. If they could just stay little. Sam and I would love to add all these creatures to the homestead some day. For now we will just have to visit them at special events.

I always find sawmills fascinating. My Pap owned and ran his own sawmill until he retired. So you might say it is in my blood. The smell of wood and saw dust smells so fresh. I like to visit the wood section of Lowes not only to bring boards home but to smell the wood.

Steam engines are a favorite too. The sound of the chugging and puffing of thick smoke clouds filling the sky. The bell rings out. They move so slow but did much work in the earlier days.

My Pap was always fond of steam engines too. In fact he built a small replica of one. It ran off gas not steam. We purchased it at the public sale after he passed. It needs alot of work. We would like to put it in the fall parade some day.

The day was full of fun for us. Of course we had fresh cut french fries soda and hand dipped ice cream to end the day before we left.

Blessings Til Next Time!
