Tractor pulling north of the 49th .....

A drone photo below of our club's annual tractor pull and show this past weekend at the historic Bremner farm site just north east a few minutes from Sherwood Park in north central Alberta. We had 116 tractors pulling and lots of displays, demonstrations, and kid's activities, a real family-friendly event. Check out our website at 'strathconavintagetractor.com' if you have a spare minute. Thanks for visiting today .....

Look like a big show!

I wanted to go , but just too busy. That is a pile of tractors. At sangudo we had 42 on the 7th.

That would be fun nothing like that around here not sure there is even a tractor show anywhere within 200 miles or more

what tractor are u pulling? where do you live?

I have a tractor, a Massey Harris 20, and have had a few other smaller tractors over the years. Two Massey Harris 101 Jrs, A Cockshutt 30, Avery A, Allis B, Case V and a Farmall A. I've never pulled other than once fooling around at the site, but me and another fellow cut grass and keep things looking good on the property. It's all volunteer work so I have a farm to play on with no expenses ..... ha! We take two cuttings of hay off the property in the photo where we host our pull. We don't own it, the county lets us use it. I live in Sherwood Park, just 4 miles east of Edmonton. The farm is 5 minutes NE of Sherwood Park. Until this year we planted grain crops on the adjacent property also owned by the county. We now lease 50 acres for that about 3 miles east. There is a historic mansion on the top of that photo called the Bremner House, it's about 115 years old I think, county owned. We'll probably be moving or will become homeless, the county is plopping a big $80 million horse palace on the property for the well-heeled horse lovers and their families, lots of pavement with an RV park and even a polo field for those that like to ride horses and smack little white balls and pretend they live in England or wherever that is played. I didn't know anyone here even did that but apparently they do.

What a show!
Sure would like to see a picture of your Farmall A if you have one !

Hi Kd ..... heres a photo of the Farmall ..... pretty much all original, never had a paint brush touch its tin .... I prefer tractors in their work clothes. I no longer have it but it was lots of fun. I kept it at the farm in the photo and we used it as a general chore and wagon-hauling tractor. The photo is from a few years back on our annual road tour. Where do you live?

hi Crazy Horse, that's a fine looking old A! We live on farm 50 miles south of Kan City. Here's a picture I posted before of our youngest granddaughter taking our old A for a spin. I sure enjoy your posts.

That's a cutie grand daughter if I've ever seen one, beautiful young lady. Kansas City, home of the Royals ..... one of my favorite teams and 2015 World Series champs. So 50 miles south, are you in Kansas or Missouri?

Thank you, Claire is the baby of the family & a joy to our hearts.
Live in Kansas - South of little town of Osawatomie.

I did some Googling, what a nice little town, and some interesting history. Have a nice day KD.

The sled is generally pulled farther in Canada than in the US due to the snow usually being on the track.

Y'know B&D, that's always puzzled me as to why that happens. I thought it had
something to do with being close to the magnetic north pole but I'm glad you
straightened that out .... ha!
