[Steam-engine] Shows

[Dave Merchant]

We go to quite a few shows, but the Greenville (Darke County north of town) 
steam show is our favorite.

There is always a lot going on, lots of loads, not just engines sitting around.

The show at the fairgrounds is big, but it appears that not much happens,
just a jillion shiny gas tractors sitting stationary.

We usually go to the show, then take a circle around southern Indiana,
then end up at the Air Force Museum on Monday.
Last is a meal at the Flying Tiger (chinese) outside the Wright Pat gate. 
Great place..

Second + 3rd choices are Wauseon + Mason Mich., although Wauseon was
much more active this year than the last couple times we were there.
...but we haven't been to Rollag yet, so can't compare it.

Here are some pix from Greenville and Mason...
