OOPS, I meant to write,,,

Then I could still let folks in under my 18X30 canopy without shutting down the engine so they don't get tangled up in the belt.

Yup, The point is THEY COME IN!!!!!
They pay to come in.
That gives us the funds to pour the concrete to set our nearly half million pounds of Snow engine on.
Let them have the flea market.
My display is swamped during the show.
This year I will take some stakes and rope so I can rope off the corn sheller in case of rain.
