Anyone else in Southeast....

going to the Expo this week.

The Sunbelt Agricultural Expo is in Moultrie this week, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.

A lot of stuff geared to big ag, but there's a ton of stuff to interest homesteaders as well.

We'll be there Tuesday, and if anyone else is going that day, we'd love to do a meet and greet.

I was an exhibitor for the first five years it ran. That show was always a blast and we always sold equipment. Wish I was close enough to go. I'm sure it's grown even bigger! Enjoy it!

We've only missed a couple of years out of the last 12 or so. It's one of the highlights of the year for my kids. They love it.

Would love to meet little brother if we got the chance.

It is huge. I don't even try to get to everything. I just hit the exhibits that I know I'm interested in first, then meander around to what I can get to after that.

Tyusclan momma loves the Family Living Building. She spends about half the day in there.

Just got home from the show about half an hour ago. Extremely tired and footsore, but had a great time.

I especially wanted to get an angle grinder, but DeWalt wasn't even there this year. Don't know why. They've had an exhibit there every year.

The kids had a great time, and they were all dead asleep before we were half an hour out of Moultrie.

Bought gas in Donalsonville for 2.799. Woo hoo! Love to see it coming on down. That's about 20-30 cents a gallon cheaper than here.

For anyone close enough to make it, definitely consider it next year. It's worth the trip.
