Learning About Heavy Construction Equipment

Hi, my name is Dewey Lund and this a blog that I've written about heavy construction equipment. When I was growing up, there was a heavy equipment dealer located in our town. Whenever we would drive by the business, I would beg my parents to stop to I could look around. My parents would often stop so I could see all of the massive equipment on the lot. The owner would come out and tell me all about each piece of equipment and explain how it worked. He would even let me get in the driver's seat and I would pretend that I was driving the equipment. My childhood memories followed me into adulthood and even today I still like learning about heavy equipment. I wanted to share my knowledge with others by writing this blog and I hope that you find it as exciting as I do.
