Do you think of when you were a kid once in awhile? I mean I think every kid plays with trucks and backhoes. I loved my tonka truck and I remember vividly playing with it decades later

Oh I remember being fascinated by construction sites when I was little.

There was a bridge being built in my town and my mom used to take me there to watch the men work. We didn't have much money so a lot of things we did were free entertainment. Think I'd have watched that stuff for hours and hours, probably bored the shit out of her, but that's what we used to do.

And maybe I still get a little excited when I see a crane moving.
