glimpses of our summer

One of our highlights of the summer so far is checking out the open house at Brad's place of employment.....Highland Valley Copper. It was absolutely fantastic and I don't think it gets any better for a bunch of little boys than to be around these HUGE mighty machines:) This is the wheel of one of the loaders at Highland Valley Copper.
During one of the tours of the mine pits, Grandma was asking Braden what he thought about daddy's work.....his response was a big 'WOW' as he gazed out at all the big dumptrucks and loaders working.
