STATE Tractor Pull

Nick & I headed out early this morning for Hutchinson for the MINNESOTA STATE TRACTOR PEDAL PULL.  This was a big event....I was surprised at how many people were there!! I'd guess about 1000 that came & went.  They had two age groups going at a time & separate the boys from the girls.  So after the 4 & 5 year olds were done, it was the 6 & 7 year old groups.  There were 51 boys in the 7 year old group!!  He was up against a LOT more than at previous pulls were he placed!  Nick was number 35 and so we left after he was done.  He didn't make it to the top three so no need in sticking around!  The top ones before him had pulls of 31, 32, & 34 feet.  Nick was just over 26 feet which I would say put him in about the middle for placing. 

Here it happened to be Hutchinson's city wide garage sale day as well!  So we hit a few sales after the pull but it was cold out & I ended up with a headache so we headed home.
