OT: Any Shows in Illinois?

1 Dollar · Jun 30, 2008

I'm looking for any shows that might be going on in the first week of August that are roughly in between Indianapolis, IN and Waterloo, IA. My uncle and I want to take a trip to Waterloo and tour the JD factory there, and we are looking for something else to do to make a full weekend out of this little outing. So if anybody knows of any threshing shows etc., let’s hear 'em!

Thanks
Where we will be going

Going across on 88? 80? Take the exit off of 88 at Rochelle and go west on hwy 38 to Franklin Grove to the Living History and Antique Equipment Association Show. Not real big, but it's got heart! I used to live about 3 miles from the site, but I moved, so you better visit for me.

Plan a stop in Dyersville, Iowa, along Hwy #20 (4 lane). This is 25 mi. west of Dubuque enroute to Waterloo. Ertl has a small retail outlet (was there some time ago), there"s a Farm Toy Museum (every farm toy you can imagine), other Farm toy retail outlets including one downtown that have tons of toy tractors. Just ask around, will take a couple hrs to see it all. If you are a baseball fan, drive a few mi. out to "Field of Dreams"...see the movie first and that field will give you goosebumps.
