Carshow and more cars

While Joanne was visiting, we all went to a carshow at a local car museum. Ben thought it was very interesting to see all the old cars, and particularly liked the play area in the museum, which was full of all kinds of car toys, especially ones to climb in. He also liked climbing in the firetruck in the elementary school playground at Newton Center, where we all went to play and have a picnic. There's also a big new playground there that he likes but I don't have any pictures of it yet. Back at home, Ben got several more toy cars for his birthday, so his collection is somewhere over 60 vehicles by now. He likes to set up car shows with them, and also to arrange them into an "apple street," his name for a traffic circle. He started making apple streets in England, where there are lots of them.
