Garbage Day

Today was garbage day at Susan's (every Wednesday) and everyone on the street has their own garbage bin.  Well, it's amazing what kids find interesting.  Anything involving a big "truck" and a loud engine is sure to do it.  Therefore, we decided to see what this garbage pick-up all entails.  So we all wandered out into the yard and watched how the garbage man disposes of our trash.  The children thoroughly enjoyed watching the arm grab the bin and dump it out into a chute on the top of the truck.  We even got a wave and a honk from the driver!  Maybe we'll get to explore more jobs that big trucks do in our community.
