Twenty-nine tractors and over 60 people participated in this year’s tractor ride sponsored by the Western Augusta Steam and Gas Association on Saturday. The tractors left the Palmer Community Center in the morning (where these photos were taken) and headed through the Spring Valley area and then to Kendal where enthusiastic residents enjoyed the “parade,” according to organizer Larry Black. Then the participants drove to Lake Robertson for a catered lunch before heading back to Palmer. (Stephanie Mikels Blevins photos)
