Internation Harvester Museum - Stew Paquette's

March 29/14  Weather Hot 83 with Severe Storm warnings all day.   3 inches of rain and blustering wind.

My brother and girlfriend are visiting for the weekend and it happened that today is a nasty day.  However that does not stop us from keeping busy.   We started with lunch, then shopped at the cowboy store Boot Barn, then loaded up at the Russell Stove Candy Factory, while passing by a sign for a IH Farmall Tractor Museum ,,,,,we thought why not?  It is one of those Roadside America Offbeat Tourist Attractions.

Since my brother and I grew up on our family farm we remembered some of the tractors our Dad had.  As well my brother worked a few years at the International Harvester plant in Chatham.    So we went exploring and were impressed with the amount of fully restored red Farmall tractors in the collection and International Harvester trucks and farm equipment.   Who would have thought we would have been doing this on an afternoon in Florida!!!!
