It might not have always felt like a summer day, but cool weather, at times, failed to deter the enthusiasm of those taking part in the annual Palmerston-Waihemo A&P Show on Saturday.
Two of the highlights were the Eastern Agri-Fun Event for school children and the terrier race, in which one over-enthusiastic entry managed to take off with the quarry.
The traditional grand parade was led by the skirl of the pipes and Palmerston-Waihemo A&P Association president Garry Dodd and included an impressive display of vintage machinery.
The show was followed by a car show at the showgrounds yesterday, also organised by the A&P association.
