Well boys and girls, its that time of year again. Some of us are making plans to attend the "California Antique Farm Equipment Show" aka CAFES at Tulare, California which will be at the World Ag Expo facility or International Ag Center as some know it, located at 4500 S. Laspina St. Tulare, CA. April 21st thru April 23, 2023.

Looks like Chapters 5, 15 and 17 will be there in force; displaying old iron as well as participating in the demonstration area in the "South 40" by Gate 12.
Steeltracs did such a great job last year, I think we voted him in as official "Dig" chairman again!

Who else is attending? Rumor was that the "Goldilocks Greek" aka D4Angelo will be there to show us how to drive straight as well.

There is plenty to see and do, not to mention lots of vendors and plenty of eats. Saturday night BBQ steak night tables are going fast, so don't hesitate.

This event is only a month before the ACMOC National Show which is held at Santa Margarita, CA. It gets us pumped up for more fun and excitement that Thomas Madden and his gang from the Paso Robles Pioneer Days Committee will provide.

Hope to see many of you there! JM

Thanks for the "shout out" buddy. I will be there along with a few others from Chapter 16. Should be a good time.

Now thats what ya call a "Cat n Pan!"

Hi, Juiceman.
Rumor currently has it that there may well be a representative there from Chapter 18 across the puddle. No names, no pack drill at the moment.

Just my 0.02.

There is a long story about the spare "cat"; turns out there were 5 kittens in that scraper neck. Mama cat decided to use the neck for a nursery; One was left inside and not discovered until the end of the show; Tulare Larry we call him made it home and was reunited with his mom. Best guess is none of them had any nourishment for over 10 days, as that scraper was loaded and parked miles away from "home" away from mama cat...talk about CAT TOUGH! JM
