CCAMA Caravan 2015 Videos !!!

CCAMA Tractor Caravan 2015 Cedar City to Parowan via Parowan Gap.
www.ccama.blogspot.com
I love riding in these caravans. 
Traveling that distance, 28.5 miles, with the wind blowing in your face, the tractor engines roaring and the beautiful country of Utah all around you is exhilarating !

Click on the picture to make it larger.


And speaking of wind, I had to add some music to the videos because of it. And I am so glad I did. With the music and the flags waving it is really inspirational.  You got to see and share these videos.

 Next time I am sitting on some bales of hay in the wagon so I can swivel and capture the video and photographs more quickly. It was suggested that I use an office chair with a swivel and maybe rollers. That would be fun.

They say if you are a follower, the view never changes. Well that is not always true cause the landscapes during this caravan were ever changing and yes, there was that one XL blue gingham shirt of my husband's always in view but I like that shirt and what is in it. I enjoy riding in that hay wagon too.


The video is snippets along the route to Parowan Gap and part 2 is from the Gap to Parowan.

Right now I am waiting for the music to load up onto the videos and I am so excited for you all to see how wonderful an event this all is. I am toe tapping right now in anticipation.

Kip Hansen for Cedar City Council 2015




 On the morning of the caravan, we gathered behind the water district in the parking lot. I walked around and came across this wonderful sign. I was pleasantly surprised that one of the members of CCAMA was running for Cedar City Council 2015.

Kip Hansen was kind enough to pose in front of his sign for me before the CCAMA

Vintage tractors, horses and cowboys, covered wagons, and long horned cattle being herded down the road.

Kanab, Utah Post CCAMA Parade Video

John Kirkland and his two granddaughters after the parade in Kanab, Utah
www.ccama.blogspot.com
To see this club on their tractors is such an inspiration. You can tell in an instant the care they have put into their tractors and the desire to share these beautiful machines with the public. Smiles and waves to greet you and American flags waving in the breezes. It is a sight to see. The sounds of their motors and the clanking and vibrating of the metal and all the history that goes along with these vintage tractors is surely and event.

I missed the actual parade and so did hundreds of other people who may have not even known it was happening. So next year just wait and see. We can make sure they do know.

Alas I got to see them coming around the corner as they entered onto the parade route. We were on our way to the where the tractor pull was. I grabbed my camera and took some shots but the window was glaring and dusty.

We pulled into the old junior high football field and I ran down the road to see if I could catch them and I saw them coming in off the road. I got to see them all in their tractor regalia, American flags and dogs and grandchildren. So here's CCAMA after the parade.

 


Thank you for visiting CCAMA
Come back soon and see the videos of the
Tractor Pull in Kanab for Western Legends Roundup. I got some very good video of all of your pulls.

Location update CCAMA Parade in Kanab 8 am


CCAMA will be participating in a vehicle parade that takes place at 9 am on Saturday August 29. We will meet at the location of the tractor pull at the old junior high school.

This is the wonderful thing about living in the country. We usually do not use addresses just landmarks. I prefer it this way but I do need to pin point the location. anyone know where the old junior high is in Kanab? The tractor pull is behind the Western Legends roundup Headquarters. Look for a brick building and Parry Lodge is across the street.  ( 100 E) . That is what they said.

Tractor pull begins at 9 am after the parade.

The parade at high noon is not for vehicles.

Now we got that straight as best we can.

CCAMA will be participating in a vehicle parade that takes place at 8 am on Saturday August 29. We will meet at the location of the tractor pull at the old junior high school. Tractor pull begins at 9 am after the parade.

Ok location of the tractor pull and meet up for the 9am parade is as they told me. You can click on the map I drew and it will give you a larger view. The woman at the Western Legend Roundup Headquarters said the location of the tractor pull is behind them. Look for a brick building and Parry lodge across 100 E.  This is the best we could do and I hope it helps. No address available but it is the old Junior High School football field.

Delta, UT Tractor Pull 2012


Things a Good Farmer Knows

  • Always drink upstream from the herd.
  • A bumble bee is considerably faster than a John Deere tractor.
  • Do not corner something that you know is meaner than you.
  • Don't interfere with somethin' that ain't botherin' you none.
  • It is a rule of nature that taking a day off on a farm sets a person back at least a week. (Jane Hamilton)
  • Life is simpler when you plow around the stump.
  • Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance.


Thank you for visiting CCAMA     ( page views 6219 )

Panguitch Parade and Tractor Pull 2015

I love a parade, don't you? 
Paul and Deborah Moen Riding Tandem

Riding on a tractor can be so much fun. Riding on a tractor in a parade is double the fun, I think. Riding on a tractor in a tractor pull must be triple the fun but we shall get into that further on down the page. 
You can click on the pictures to enlarge
them.

I love sitting in that special tractor seat next to my husband. There is nothing like it. And to my surprise I am not the only wife who thinks this way. I saw a few familiar faces two at a time on one tractor during the parade ! I think the wives will agree with me it is a very special experience. You will see them in the video and also see Leroy Brady with his dogs, Shredder and Butch, riding right up there on the engine. I saw drivers waving to the crowds and the crowds waving back with happy smiles. Children held their own bag in anticipation for candy that was tossed to the curbs from parade participants. You couldn't ask for better weather. I know that the weather report hadn't looked very good all through the week. But suddenly there was a change and we enjoyed blue skies and gorgeous expanding white clouds which waited on us till we were done.  

This parade is fun because we get to do it twice. We turn around at the end and go back the way we came which allows us to see the folks on the other side of the road and see each other.

Now the Tractor Pull.......

#tractors #anitique #tractor sled # event


The 3 little clouds I saw before the parade kept expanding and when the parade was over well, see for yourself in the photograph above. Big huh? But the day remained dry that was until Paul Moen broke the sled on his second run in the 4000-4500 class. He was the only participant in that class. While Paul Moen got all lined up for his pull he took off and pulled that sled father than anyone had. We all thought, "Wow, Paul's making history !" And then the no pull hand signals were waved and we all sat back down. He tried again and the sled would just not move. Then it began to rain a bit . Watch the video below.


 WATCH VIDEO- Tractor Pull




The day was done for most. the grandstands emptied. The sled was hauled off the track and the sled doctors were at work with exploratory surgery. See below.

Rain or shine, broke or running smooth, it is always a good day when these events come. The men and women and teens who drive these tractors are tough and seem to take things in stride.

Farmers are philosophical. They have learned that it is less wearing to shrug than to beat their breasts.

This is big news. This young man is going to be 14 years old in June and he has won the title of "Tractor Puller of the Year". 

Treyson got interested in Tractors 3 years ago. The interest and enthusiasm run in his family through his grandfather, Sheridan Hansen and his father, Kip Hansen. 

What does Treyson do when he is not at the tractor pulls? He loves  running and recently ran the mile in just 6.07 minutes! 

Here is Treyson with a dedicated team at the Cedar Livestock & Heritage Festival 2014 In Cedar City,UT

I will leave you with this quote by Chris Hadfield

Bye for now,
Deborah Moen
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Decide in your heart of hearts what really excites and 
challenges you, and start moving  your life in that direction. 
Every decision you make, from what you eat to what you do 
with your time tonight, turns you into who you are tomorrow, 
and the day after that. Look at who you want to be, 
and start sculpting yourself into that person. 
You may not get exactly where you thought you'd be,
 but you will be doing things that 
suit you in a profession you believe in. 
Don't let life randomly kick you into the adult 
you don't want to become." ~ Chris Hadfield
