Farm Friday - 3i Farm Show

Yesterday, we all headed out to the 3i Farm Show.  It is the biggest free show  in the state of Kansas and it can be very overwhelming your first time there.  There are buildings full of exhibitors showcasing new farm technologies and other products.  But the big part of the show takes place outside spread over 10 acres.  There you can see all the newest tractors and combines, all the newest trucks and cars, lots of cattle guards, gates, etc, and lots of farm stuff in between.  I admit that I don't know what half the stuff is that we walk by, but at least I have learned a lot from my first one 5 years ago. 

One of the highlights for Eve is getting to go in all and sit on all the farm equipment, especially the John Deere stuff (we are green people).  Here is a picture of Eve and Tyler in the cab of a combine that Tyler wishes we could afford to own.  And above she is getting an early start on learning how to operate a lawn mower.

She even got me in the action by hoping on the back of an atv with her.

One of the vendors even had cattle on hand to help demonstrate their products.

And Daphne had gotten shots earlier in the morning and this is how she spent our whole time there.

It was a breezy fun afternoon, walking around, seeing all the new stuff and spending time together.
