"Ricketts, Iowa; A Community Working Together
A scene taken from the Ricketts Annnual Steam and Antique Show. Each year thousands of people to observe the many fine exhibits and to watch as the mighty steam engines are put to work powering the threshing machines of many years gone by"

Good old days

1970, 1870, what's the difference? It was all about the good old days of steam powered tractors. Man, I wish somebody would bring back those old shows.

Glory Days

My wife thinks I put up too many of those corny "Not the same Ricketts" posts. Sorry if anyone is put off by them, they're just too much fun. As an antidote, here are some buttons from the old Steam and Antique Shows that were held in Ricketts that we discovered while cleaning out our basement today. Does anyone have any fun memories or great pictures from one of the shows? I'd love to post that sort of thing.

Ricketts has a proud and flavorful history. Only you can insure that it has a bright and exciting future.
