Every truck and machine your child has ever dreamed of…all in one place! Bulldozers, excavators, backhoes and dump trucks from K S Carroll & Daughter, wreckers from CBK, police cars from the Littleton Police Dept, fire trucks from the Littleton Fire Dept., steam-powered cars and big rigs including The Grumpy Pete  were at the Littleton Parks, Recreation and Community Education Department Touch-A-Truck event.

It was a perfect Saturday Spring morning and even though the event only lasted 2 hours, there were hundreds of children and parents enjoying the spectacle. The Grumpy Pete had 70 children plus parents all take a turn at looking inside the big rig – the biggest hit was the “Cars” movie bed linen on both beds. Yes, there’s two beds, a refrigerator and coffee maker for that home away beds from home. Even some very big kids (aka parents) couldn’t wait to take a turn and marvel at the size of this classic American LargeCar.

And to think everything in your home arrives on the back of a truck. Until next year…TGP
