BRRMM.  BRRRRRRMMMM.

I couldn’t resist taking a photo of the Heavy Equipment Training Academy as I was driving through Washington, D.C. yesterday.

For those of you recent blog readers who are wondering what in the heck I’m talking about, let me fill you in.  A few weeks ago, I suggested a new benefit auction idea … you can read about my auction procurement suggestion of a bulldozer training lesson here. What a fun item for men and adventurous women attending your auction fundraiser.  I think it’s a really nice idea for a school auction.

During my drive, I paid better attention and noticed that the Academy is adjacent and across the street from an elementary school.  I bet the boys at the school love to watch the equipment operators at work during recess.

The Academy is next to a school.

I know that my brother loved to play with his Tonka trucks in the sandbox as a kid.  And, because my Dad was involved in operating some of those pieces of equipment through his business, my brother’s friends thought Dad was the bomb.
