The Tractor Museum

Actually formally known as the American Museum of Agriculture, this was our Friday field trip for Sage Preschool. The building was closed while we were there, but the yard out in front was full of old farm equipment in varying stages of rust and decay. The kids were elated to explore and check things out. They were especially excited to be pretending to drive these monsters.

Jack Jack is elated.


Ellen flashes a smile our way.


Jack wants to get in on the action. I'm hiding right behind him. This is a real John Deere, by the way.


Get out of the way; Ellen means business.


Jack Jack is elated to be driving. While he was up there, he also spotted an excavator on the back of an 18-wheeler flatbed trailer, a yellow school bus, and a motorcycle going down the road just outside the fence. Can we say super-elated?

7 kids, 4 moms, lots of tractors, a bajillion mosquitos.
Successful field trip.
