Michael - Tractor pull?





Shay found a 'Souri event for her dad that the whole family could enjoy that was close to home. It was a lawn mower pull/carnival. We arrived at 5:00. While Mike and Jace checked out the mowers, the rest of us went to play the games and ride the rides.

Breaking Rocks, Fishing Pond, Pick a Duck, Shoot thePaint Gun, and Find the Treasure were the games the kids and I played. At the Fish Pong all of us got beany babies. Of course, Taylor and I went back when no one was looking. He got a Weasel and I got a lamb. I also have to admit that Taylor won a Paint Gun hitting the smallest metal bird! The lady said that he was the only one that hit it that night.

We rode in the barrel's behind a 4 wheeler for 10 to 15 minutes. Then we rode in the back of a horse drawn wagon.

We ate this as we watched the pulls. Dinner was Pulled Pork sandwiches with chips and homemade pie. This wash one big well organized pull. We were there until 10:00 and they were going continuously.

The Lawn Mowers were so unique. They had 4 different classes of modified standard lawn mowers that when up to an unlimited classes. The drivers were of all ages and sex. There was a little 6 yr. old girl that had a great run as well as a gray hair woman.
