We always go to their regular yearly tractor show. My husband tells me we also went to this particular event at some time or other, but I don't recall the Indians.
This is a great way to spend a day just looking and checking old things out.
The huge steam tractor show in McLouth KS. The McLouth Threshing Bee is one of the longest running Threshing Bees in the Nation. It's fun and makes a nice day trip as well.
