That must have been the first year of the "big" compacts. Looks like Francis and Patty nerving themselves up to go deal with the smiling curmudgeon behind the parts counter (me). I would assume one of the big draws for regular customers was getting a 10% bonus for any money you put on account. Guy with a lot of our equipment would put money ahead to use during the rest of the year, which would be like getting 10% off parts and labor. We also would give extra good pricing on twine and oil. We used to sell a lot of compacts, one year (maybe '03) we sold 130 compacts out of Fowlerville.

Probably every dealership feels this way, but we had a pretty darn good group of customers. Wasn't sure I was going to go, but now I've got to, too many good memories and people to chat with.

Minus two kids, we traveled light with only the youngest in tow. As long as a pool was at the end of our destination she was easy to please unlike the other two who have a multitude of requirements to travel with mom and dad. Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
