Friday dawned warm and got warmer, but a good breeze made it tolerable.  Exhibitors continued to arrive throughout the day, with more Fords, both rare and "ordinary".  A very rare Bradley tractor made it's appearance in the Sears and Roebuck exhibit area.  

Your reporter was very busy with other duties today, and will have more coverage of the 2006 show tommorrow.

Thursday started very foggy and dreary, but ended sunny and hot.  The grounds are drying out nicely, the parking lot should be in good shape on Friday.  The Ford group is putting on a great display, the number of Fords on display is exceeding our expectations.  On the pulling track, the four cylinder mini-rods put on a great show.  

This year, I&I is honoring some of it's own.  It's pur thirtieth year, and we're honoring those members who have stuck with the club since the early years.  More on this later.  

Here are a few pictures of what was around the grounds today.

Wednesday July 12, 2006 Preview of the 2006 Show attractions.

We've had a little rain at Penfield, but the grounds are in good shape, and it is shaping up to be a good show.  A number of unusual and rare Ford Tractors are already on the ground
