I think I have posted this before but worth mentioning again. This year was the 64th Midwest Old Thresher Reunion in Mount Pleasant IA.

We had not attended since 2007 where I had a motorcycle wreck coming back from MOTR and nearly died.

Here are a few pics that in no way represent what a large and great show this really is.

Here is a link to their site which should a lot of pics, they are on just about any social media site as well. http://www.oldthreshers.com/

There were just under 38k people that attended this year. It is always 5 days ending Labor Day. Truly a special event like no other.
