A Day of Mighty Machines

 I took my dad to Truck Adventures at Santa Anita race track yesterday so he could climb on all kinds of trucks and press all kinds of buttons on those trucks.  I showed him how to climb inside a wheel well.

 I also showed him how to climb up to the cab of a front loader.

 Here I'm demonstrating how to drive a city bus through the busy streets of L.A.

I got to sit at the controls of one of my all-time favorites, the Bobcat.  It was amazing.

 Look how fast I am out of the race track starting gates, which had been set up outside the stadium.  No horse could catch me!

I also pretended to be a bad guy, which you can tell by where I ended up in this police car.  They let me go with a warning.

Grace found out that her presidential candidate was scheduled to make an appearance at Los Angeles Southwest College Saturday morning, so she put on her game face and hopped in the car.  Grace is ready for a girl president.

We waited patiently in the warm sun.  There were hundreds of people, and the line snaked all the way around the building and down the road.  And just when it seemed like we wouldn't get a chance to see her ...

Secretary Clinton slipped out a side door and greeted the overflow crowd with a few words before she headed up to the main event.   We were only a few feet away.  It was pretty exciting.

It's too bad we're not old enough to vote.
