Snake River Steam and Power Show

Post by BobD » Sun Sep 24, 2023 2:00 pm

While visiting my hometown of Rupert, Idaho last weekend, (Sept. 15th & 16th.) I was conveniently present for the Steam and Power show at the Minidoka County Historical Society. :)

In addition to the show, the new Power Museum building was open as well. The Russel steam tractor, recently restored by Mike Christensen and sons was under live steam sawing shingles.

Looks like a lot of steam tractors!
Just a 20 year old who listens to 40 year old music, works on 75 year old airplanes and drives 100 year old cars.
The past is only simple because hindsight is 20/20.
