FFA Week-Wed. evening and Thursday


Possibly one of the highlights of my trip was Dave. Dave works at Capital Tractor a great sponsor for Greenwich FFA Chapter. Dave knows all about tractors, but he also knows all about FFA. He was the Star American Farmer in the 1960's! Congrats Dave!













St. Johnsville hooked us up with a traditional New York style breakfast! They even made the applesauce from scratch.







































Before I could leave, they told me I had to check out the snowmobile. Since we don't get snow at home, I had the chance to sit on one and see what it would be like to try it out. ...too bad it wasn't cold enough because these machines go over 100 mph!


(don't you just love the horns???)












Check out some more from FFA Week in New York!!!































Around Lunch on Thursday, I got to stop by the Unadilla Valley FFA Chapter and have a traditional school lunch! Man, how I miss those days!
























































































































































So, you think you can do it? That's what Sharon Springs FFA chapter was asked........I think they can....



































































































































Here are some members from the Otselic Valley FFA Chapter. We had a quick tour of some maple taps that they have right in front of their school!















Here is Mrs. Robinson and her family. They have their own Dairy operation! Brown Swiss are their thing! Oh, they do have some holsteins too. : )
