Tom, Several years ago I watched an RFD-TV show featuring Mr. Mehmke as he gave a tour of his collection (that was way before the 99.8% air time about horses they have now). I remember him as a very polite and intelligent man. In the fall of 2010 my wife and I followed the Lewis & Clark trail from Sioux City to Ft. Clatsop. I drove out to the Mehmke farm, but found he was no longer living. A young man said I could look at the tractors.

I saw a smaller Big Bud working up near Loma. LA in WI
