The event is annual, apparently this is the 5th year or something. We didn't go last year because I thought he was too little, but there were kids there younger than him this year. People were very nice, he got lifted into the big trucks by firemen, army men, city workers, and a farmer. He enjoyed it all, but did not smile for any pictures. We missed out on a few of the trucks, by the time we got to them the lineups were too long and he did not want to wait. When we left he informed me he was very sad. We stopped for some fast food which lifted his spirits, surprising how french fries do that to us both ;-) and we made it home before he fell asleep. He is now upstairs in his bed, playing with his city sweeper and fire truck, instead of napping. I hope the nap comes soon though, he is tired.
It was a hot, sunny day, which was good and bad. It got very hot out there in the parking lot in the sun, but it was better than being wet in the rain or something. We went inside as well, they had motorcycles and face painting. He did not want his face painted so got a car painted on his arm instead. In purple. He refused to see the lizards, I'm not sure what he thinks they are but we'll go to Little Ray's one day this summer and hope it's not a disaster.
Some pics... you can see he did not smile at all.

I took my son to touch-a-truck last month. I have some no smiling pics too like they're concentrating so hard on driving trucks! He is super cute on the snowplow.
