Neerim Show 2016

We took the Mercedes Benz out to the Neerim Show on Sunday, January 24 2016. It was an overcast day, with rain and drizzle - luckily John had decided to put the Benz on the trailer and float it up  so it didn't get dirty, other wise he would have just decided to stay home. Good display of trucks, some tractors and a tractor pull, plus some old cars, modern utes, lawn mower racing, cattle judging, dog high jump, chain saw sculpting, stationary engines, the Morwell Caledonian pipe band and rides for the kids. Good day - here are most of the trucks which were on display.
