We had the chance to go with our friends to Davenport/moline a couple weeks ago. We all had a blast. First we went to the John Deere Pavillion in Moline. The gift shop had nothing we couldn't live without. It was all overpriced any how! So matt and I ventured to the Pavillion, where they have the newest models of the tractor and also some antique models. Our friends joined in on the big dream of owning one of them someday. They had a kid corner, there you could milk a cow, color, watch a movie, or TRACTOR RACE!
In which Matt and I are enjoying. This was fun to manage to adults behind a 3ft. by 4ft. section of plywood. We managed and it
turned out really fun. Our next venture led us to The Machine Shed, where we enjoyed so good home cooking! The sign above the entrance said, " Farming is everyone's bread and butter." The waitress' wore red plaid shirts with overalls and a ball cap. They use mason jars for drinks. They had an old grocery store produce cooler for the salad bar. This place was awesome. The food, the people, the atomosphere, but i think the best part was outside the restraunt. They gave free tractor rides, although we didn't due to the cold, rainy weather. After this the day was about shopping. The overall trip was good but my favorite part was the dining experience. I think it may have topped Cracker Barrel for excitement but I wouldn't say the menu was as tasty nor the gift shop more endulding. Cracker Barrel you're still my number one!
