Matt's Toy

We got a message from Matt that he was nearby and lifting a track repair car off the tracks and on to a semi.  Well, that just happens to be right up our alley, so we went and grabbed Sam out of school and took off to watch, jammies and all!

It was a cold rainy day and the kids were freezing, so watching outside quickly turned into watching from our heated car, to watching out the sun roof when the rain stopped.

 It was so fun to watch Matt from start to finish.  The crane looked so small until he raised it and extended it and then had to add the bar and cables. 

 When he lifted the train car it was pretty amazing.  It seemed so light with his big machine.

 After the work was done we got to go on site and Matt let the kids help him put everything back.  A definite highlight for the kids.
