The concrete slabs outside the metal buildings were already dotted with agricultural equipment as vendors started to trickle in for the second-annual Great Bend Farm and Ranch Expo.The show is set for Wednesday through Friday at complex west of town, and organizers said it will be bigger and better than the inaugural event. Show hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Wednesday and Thursday, and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Friday.
