First Pull of 2009


And we were off!!

In the bus!


It looks funny with that camper in the background, we were actually driving north on Hwy 20 when I took this.


Bryce taking it easy in his Lazy Boy.


Peyton hung out with Grandma Lois.


Note the FORD emblem on the bus ahead of us!

We sold this bus to Joel and couldn't resist his Chevy being pulled by a bus covered in Ford and IH stickers. He is a Chevy and JD fan!

Joel won 3 out of his 4 classes, got 2nd in the 4th class. So he has to leave the stickers on the bus, that was the deal, the stickers stay if he does good.

We have a lot of fun!! Now with 2 buses, who knows what will happen!!

Ready and Waiting.


Here is the weight box Cam built. The guy has talent.

So the first pull went pretty good

1. Windy Day

2. Dry pits = DUST

3. Cold, in the 50's

4. Pulled 2 classes

5. First place in the light class

6. First place in the heavy class (by 70 feet!)

7. Joel pulled 4 classes, got 3 1st's and 1 2nd place!

8. Did I mention the wind, dust and cold???

Yes, DUST, Cam might be mad at me for posting this dusty picture.

9 hours later, the pull was done.


Peyton was still running strong.


Peek! Caught her looking through the spare tire on the trailer.


This Sunday - Ridgeland, WI


Peyton did good at the pull. Since it was cold and windy, we spent most of the day in the bus playing and talking. Once I had her outside, the stroller would only work if we were moving, the teather is going to be a necessity.

She watched her Dad pull quit attentively, I am told.

I was video taping, so Larry and Lois had her.

She kept her eye on her Daddy!

Have a great week!!

Kick some S/C butt!

Cool pics! That bus looks awesome. They made it look so easy to build. Can Cam make the weight bar any longer? :) I'll catch a pull this summer, I promise.
