Anybody know how the show grounds are? Looked like they got a lot of rain last two days and I know how muddy it gets there. thanks joe

No rain out Oregon way. Maybe you're thinking of a different Portland.

I think that would be Portland Indiana

I just took a couple of tractors out there tonite. It's a sloppy mess.

Doesn't it get muddy if someone spills a drink?
LOL

Hope it dries up some by Saturday. My wife and I are headed up for the day

Sorry, I meant Portland INDIANA . And a few years ago when they featured Ford/Fordson, some of the tractors were in 6 to 8 inches of water after a big rain. So I realy do not like walking through mud to shop the flea market.

Markin IN , What tractors did you bring? Wife and I were planning on going Wednesday but looking at Thursday or Friday now with the rain.
thanks joe

Was thinking about going tomorrow and contacted A friend that is there. He sent me some pics and it looks pretty sloppy. The isles are already quagmire and there are ponds. I walk the show so I am staying home, mud and old legs don't mix well

Leaving NE Ohio for there in the morning with two tractors, should be interesting.

I went to the show today and it was the biggest mess I have ever seen. I have been going for over a dozen years now. I also think that the number of golf carts being used is out of control and making it difficult to enjoy the show. I had a guy behind me today seemed to be short tempered because I would not get off the pavement and in to the mud to let him drive around me. The folks running the show have been great in operating in the past but they seem to have lost control of the cart drivers over the past few years.

there really isn't much left on Saturday

We took a Farmall 650, Farmall Super M,Farmall H, and a Farmall Cub. We're in the second row of tractors look for the gray canopy. Stop by and visit us.

25% of outside venders had left by dark on friday. 95% was gone by 9:00 sat morning when the rain started. A lot of tractors were leaving on Friday. Still have to pick up my camper. And sat morning before rain started most of drives you could get past the mud on the sides. I got there tuesday.
