I too, have a very good friend (also named John.

) who once worked at the now-closed local Toro dealer as a delivery / set-up man. He now owns my old 1986 312A and was generous enough to haul Hobie & I (and 5 tractors) to the 2007 WHCC show with his motorhome and car trailer. His young son left the show with all intentions of returning in 2008 with his own tractor, and had a BLAST driving my 633 in the Friday night cruise!
Even though "JB" is on the road in a truck - and doesn't get along well with computers

, he is as much a part of the Wheel Horse family as the rest of us. (in my eyes, anyhow.

)
If things work out as planned he'll be in Arendtsville in June, and I'm
positive he'll be welcome at the RedSquare tent. I'll even loan him one of my magnets, just to be on the safe side.
