Hey Little Brother Wyatt,

We hope you and your Threshing Association Club have an AWESOME
show yourselves come September. What's the date(s) for this year?

Yeah, we had an AWESOME SHOW this year. Each year it seems
more and more steam engine tractors are showing up. Of course this
year a "new" member brought three he had and we were talking to his
12 year old grandson who was with him and helping him drive one of
his steam engines and we found out this man owns a dozen steam
engine tractors. Really! We were AWED when we heard this. The
man had been collecting and finding steam engines to buy or have
given to him since he was in college. His grandson told us he has
two brothers and none of them are interested in steam engines and
he is hoping someday that his grandpa gives the 12 steam engines
to him to own! Wouldn't that be cool?

Hey that Fundrasing Dinner and Dance that your Assoc. held last
Saturday night sounds AWESOME and was a GOOD IDEA. Do
you do this every year? 280 people is a great turnout! CONGRATS!

Ham and baked potato dinner? Hmm! We wished we could have known
about this. Maybe we could have worked out something to have attended this. GREAT CHOICE OF FOOD! WHOW! $5000 was
raised? GOOD JOB! Any special plans for use of the money?

What kind of music was provided that you and Kaylee and others
danced to? Did the dance last until midnite?

The tractor/car show held at the Tri-County Fair you and your grandpa
attended a few Sundays ago sounds really neat. 35 cars and trucks
and 15 old tractors? That sounds like a good number turnout to us!
Bet it was fun you and your grandpa showing off the 1938 John Deere
tractor. Did you guys drive the tractor over or did you truck it?

WHOW! Grandpa got the 1941 Chevy Truck running? COOL! It has a
6-cylinder, 4-speed manual transmission engine? Was it hard for you
to learn and get the hang of it to learn to drive it? Rough to ride in,
huh? We bet you don't notice it too much with Kaylee riding beside
of you, right? NO RADIO? Could the truck when bought new been
ordered to come with a radio? All the radio would have broadcast
would have been AM stations but, around our area there are some
Neat AM-stations to listen to IF a person wanted to, especially a
few Country Music stations! Do you think someday you might get
to own this truck, Little Brother?

Thank you for sharing about all your Great News that you told
about. Sounds like you have been having some great fun!

How are temps. where your at? Been really hot and humid around
here. First of the week temps. 88 degrees and last couple of days
been 90-91 and suppose to get up to around 100 degrees. Good
weather to go swimming at Mark's grandparents farm.

(Mark): Also, great weather to eat lots of Bomber Pops and other
COLD Reshments!
