Smile Days Gone By Threshing Show at Portland Tennessee Oct 2014

One of the last dos for the year in my part of the world is this show, held the first weekend in October. This year we had nine full-scale and two half-scale engines under steam, and as always had a great time! Here are a few pics to show the fun.



Here you can see the difference between Joey Collins' 14 hp Frick and David Hensley's 12 hp Frick on the right.



Friday night a big dinner is cooked for the exhibitors-fried catfish, French fries, corn bread, turnip greens, white beans and ham (beans are cooked with steam from Joey's Frick boiler). If you walked away hungry, it's your fault!
