Digger Day

One of the most highly anticipated events on our summer social calendar happened this past weekend.

Digger Day.

The basic premise? Fill a parking lot with every sort of construction machine and emergency vehicle known to mankind and let the kids go to it.

Fire trucks, cement trucks, cranes, tractors, and excavators. A dizzying array of bright red, yellow and orange set against a summer blue sky.

We climbed, pulled levers, turned steering wheels and kicked tires. Sirens wailed, horns blew and classic rock blared from the speakers.

A rough and tumble family outing that the girls enjoyed every bit as much as the boys.
