In August, we went to Big Truck Day at a local recreation center. Tommy wasn't too sure at first.

But the little ambulance was really cool, and that inspired him to sit in the real thing.

We took a brief pause to play in the sandpit and climb on the firetruck (the real one was far too noisy -- all those other kids kept honking!)

We then moved on to bigger and better machines -- a sewer cleaner and a snowplow!
