I came upon this after parking at a friends home and art studio while on the Dixon Studio tour. His son must have been in the midst of a construction project and decided to take a break. It brought back memories of the Tonka trucks that my dad used to by for me.

Ha...at first I thought this was a full size earth mover.
they don't make them like they used to. now they are just junky plastic!
I can't think of one little boy.. or girl who doesn't enjoy playing with a Tonka truck Randy :)
It was so nice and funny when we all worked only to play...
I have always admired all these huge machines and the projects attached to them! Especially when they park in a row at night.
Yes you are right they remind me too of the children's toys, we still have a couple of them.
Looks almost real! I used to have Tonka Toys, too. For awhile we lived near Minnetonka, Minnesota, where they are made.
haha. a mini version of what i posted today. :)
It looks very real in that surrounding.
I had so much fun with Tonka toys. Love the memories.
Sure hope he didn't stop outdoor play just to go inside and play video games.
At first I thought it was a real one!
I had one like that as well. And yes, in the thumbnail version, it did look real!
A nice textural pic, Randy!
That truck looks pretty new . . . in very good shape!!
:-) Hours of fun...
Ah, boys and their toys...
At least their toys are affordable when boys are that age.
