Trucks, Tractors, And More!

This is a little boy’s dream!  We’ve been meaning to go see all the big equipment at Caleb’s work.  Now that he has resigned, we figured we’d better do it quick, so to Lake City we went!

This is the machine Caleb runs at the big forest fires.  Sorry the picture is bad, but I was looking up as it was loaded on his truck which we got to get in here below.

043 - CopyWow!  We were going to drive this brand new huge machine, but the key was left on and the battery was dead.  Bummer

And what little boy wouldn’t love a fire truck?092 - Copy093 - Copy096 - Copy097 - Copy100 - Copy101 - Copy102copy104 - Copy111 - Copy123copy114 - CopyAnd last but not least, they got to take a ride in this chopper! 

(Not really, but wouldn’t that have been great?  It was just flying over, but it added to the fun!)

 

And while I don’t have pictures, I have to add that we had dinner afterwards and thanks to a great deal, 3 adults and 3 kids got to eat for $20!  Just had to say that.
