Touch A Truck

Morgan driving a Utility Truck

Last weekend we took the boys to Touch-A-Truck which was the ultimate heaven for any boy. Basically, it was a parking lot filled with all kinds of parked vehicles ranging from fire trucks, garbage trucks, motor homes, moving vans, school buses, street sweepers, etc that you can climb in, explore and touch all you want. It was a clear day and the boys had a great time getting an up close experience will all the trucks. Later, there were races where Dean won his push-trike heat (pushed by dad) and Morgan won his balance bike heat, but alas neither got the grand prize drawing of a motorized car. Morgan got to see what the inside of a school bus is like so that it won't be a surprise next year for kindergarten. As much as Dean loves fire trucks when they are on the road or at the fire station, he surprisingly didn't crack a smile when on board a real one. All in all, it was a great event, and provided hours of boy wonderment.
