Truck Scavenger Hunt

Last Thursday I was off work and sat down with Jasper at the kitchen table to make a list of the trucks he wanted to see that day. Here's his list. Some aren't really trucks but made the list anyway.

Then he and Baxter and I got in the van with the camera and went looking. Here's what we found:

Pumper Truck
Grader
Airplane
Gator - (not really but he wanted this picture pretty bad)
School Bus
Double Shot - Bulldozer and Backhoe
Ladder Truck
Ambulance
 Forklift
Excavator
Skid Steer
And then on to the construction site. We spent half an hour here. It was great.
Crane
TRIPLE shot: Mini-excavator, crane, dump truck
Dump Truck
Low Boy
BIG dump truck
The bummer of the day was that we couldn't get near the troop truck. Jasper hasn't forgotten that. It was behind the fences at the ranger camp. We're still on the lookout for the six we missed. I still can't believe we didn't see a tractor all day.

I still can't believe you didn't see a stretch limosine. It seems the economy has impacted even the celebs and they've quit taking trips to The Smith House and the gold mines.
