    Default Pioneer Day Photos

    Here are a few pictures I got at the Pioneer Day parade in paso robles over the weekend. A sixty, three seventy fives, a forty five and a shot of willie driving an experimental tractor. It was a great show, thanks to all who helped make it happen. I'm glad I got put some more faces to the names on the BB.

    Thanks for posting the pictures Chris. It was fun to drive the Best 75 this year. Thanks to Jess, Dave and Russell for bringing the Best 75 down from Woodland. Wait until we have 15 Best and Holt 75's and 60's at the show in Woodland next year. It will truly be a sight to behold.

    Willie will be posting more pictures when he finally gets home tomorrow.

    Chris:

    That last picture is of Willie driving the 1917 Holt Experimental pulling a Moline manure spreader that was used 2 times and then put in the barn because it got manure on the tractor driver. We found the spreader this year and aired up the tires, greased it and cleaned it up. Some of the Moline collectors would give their eye teeth for such an original paint spreader like this.

    Good thing that fellow was able to ride on the manure spreader to keep it from getting away.

    You got that right, Mesa County, or any of the surrounding towns would frown on that …..Hummer Strips.

    Without history, a society shares no common memory of where it has been, of what its core values are, or what decisions in the past account for the present circumstances.
