My Hats off to Kevin for puting together a great organized weekend (with decent weather too!). I had a great time touring the harvestor plant and going to the JD Commons of Friday. Bob suggested a great place to eat, then hanging and talkin picking and such Friday night. Saturday was great to go to the grounds to meet some other folks and enjoy a really great lunch!!! My hats off to all of those involved with Saturday's planning too! Enjoyed seeing the American Pickers headquarters as well.
Just waiting for Charlie to get all thos pictures uploaded so we can take a look at them...
First off like Pickin Nick said thank you to Kevin and everyone that had a hand in organizing this fun winter get together. I would also like to thank everyone that took time out of their schedules to attend this event.Here are a few pictures taken during the get together. On a side note the food was great everywhere that we ate. Thanks again.
Looks like all had a good time. Wish I would have felt better this weekend I was planning on running up on Sat as I had things going Fri. Oh well, next year I guess. Impatiently waiting for Rantoul...

Thanks again Kevin for all you did this last weekend, Phyllis & I had a great time. Looking forward to doing this next year. As I'm writing this, I had to give up going to the post office to deliver my rural mail route. The snow drifts were too much for my old four wheel drive truck. First time in 26 winters I did not make it in, later on I will try again. CornPickerBob
Just wanted to thank Kevin for putting this together. My wife and I had a great time. Thank you to Kevin Bos also. Alot of good information shared by everyone.
I added a pic from Sat at Kevin Bos's "clubhouse".
