Big Lake Triathlon

On Saturday August 4th Sue and I competed in the Granite Man Big Lake Triathlon. This was our first time at this triathlon. After an early wakeup time we drove up to Big Lake and met a few friends who were also competing in the race. The weather was perfect for the race. We both finished the race with good race times. It was a fun event and we hope to do it again next year.

Little Log House Antique Power Show

On Saturday July 28th I went with my dad to the Little Log House Antique Power Show. He brought two tractors a Farmall Cub and a Super W-6. He also brought my Simplicity Broadmoar 728.
We both drove our tractors in the parade, me on the Simplicity and my dad on the W-6. I am pretty sure that my Simplicity was the loudest tractor at the show, even though it has a muffler. I need to get a new muffler before next year.
It was a beautiful day weather wise, which made it great for walking around and seeing the sights. We had gone to the show for several years, but had never toured the area on the grounds with the stone quarry, spiral bridge and army camps. This year we got on the Little Log House tractor hay ride and saw the whole grounds.
We had a great time and hope to be back again next year.
