Trash Truck Fridays

Bamino has always loved seeing the delivery trucks that come by our house. He insists on stepping outside whenever he hears the UPS, FedEx or the mailman trucks.

But Fridays are a special treat for him. The sanitation trucks that come by every Friday are something we rarely miss. We would sit in the front porch just watching the trucks pick up the barrels with its mechanical "arm". He would sit very still in my arms, transfixed with the sight and sounds that the truck makes. He'd refuse to go back in the house until the truck is out of his sight. Talk about cheap thrills! :)
We took these photos today as we were watching the trucks go about their business.

One of the nice, white-bearded operators even gives Bambino an extra treat by honking his horn when he sees us waiting by the front lawn, much to Bambino's delight.
