Big Toys

I took H kicking and screaming to the local farmers’ market on Saturday.  Although this weekly event is seldom (if ever) his first choice for an outing, his demeanor changed dramatically when he encountered the “Touch-a-Truck” event on an adjacent street.  Within minutes, he was chatting up the drivers of the extra-large wreckers (the ones that tow eighteen-wheelers).  Not only did H get to lay hands on a truck, he tested the driver’s seat, raised and lowered the boom, and checked out the sleeper compartment.  (Farmers’ markets sure do have a way of growing on you!)
