The Herrington Biehlers are avid John Deere tractor owners and fans. Dan is a city resident and lives in the 1600 block of Sunset Drive. "I actually had no intention of going to the show but the three of them along with my dad persuaded me to attend the show. I was waiting on my cousin's wife to see if she had won the raffle and at the last minute I decided to buy some tickets. Ten minutes later they announced my name and I won! "This is the second John Deere tractor I own now, the other I use for my hobby farming - look for this one at the next Augusta parade. "I picked the tractor up Sunday morning with my father Lawrence D. Biehler from Wichita and Elmer Simon from Augusta. " I was too nervous to drive the tractor out of the pavilion and Elmer was more than happy to help me with the chore - so he was technically the first person that got to drive it." source: augustagazette.com |
