Almelund Threshing Show

Sherri & I finally got a chance to partake in all the fun and hype we've been hearing about this Almelund Threshing Show. It's a podunk, miniature state fair out in the middle of nowhere that is just our style. There was a historic little schoolhouse with all kinds of artifacts, blacksmiths hammering away at fiery steel, a genuine working lumber mill with a saw blade the size of our Prius, a flea market full of random trinkets and nick nacks, plenty of time for a pitcher of watered-down beer and a pretzel, country bands playing in the background with lots of microphone feedback, decrepit steam engine tractors that looked and sounded like they were going to explode, and last but not least, an old-school tractor pull competition as the sun went down. Pure small-town awesomeness!

Shhhhh! This is a library for heaven's sake.
