Someday this will be someone’s #Throwback Thursday… before it gets too far away from branding… I wanted to post this of our crew this year for our big branding. Left to right: Jordan Bush (Myles Bush had left), Barry Gouger, Clinton Breeden, Tessia Greet, Lacee Greet, Brandon Greet, Daniel Greet, Jaxon Greet, Ben Longhofer, Vernon…

#TBT: Horsepower
Here’s another oldie shared by a relative… Since many of us are sweating through some hot weather… look closely at this pic to help you cool off! This six horsepower hitch is being used to pull out a tractor from some deep snow. Note the snow packed into the rear wheel wells. The guys look…
