"Some excavators have wheels, some have tracks."

That line is from a John Deere construction machines DVD that Skyler loves to watch.  We see a lot of tracked excavators, not too many wheeled ones.  Until yesterday!  We accompanied Mommy on her run yesterday morning and Skyler found this County owned wheeled excavator.  We had to investigate!

Running around it to see the stabilizer.

"That means warning!"

He knows it says "Cat."

Time to climb!  The I.D. plate said this machine was made in France.  Makes sense, Europe loves wheeled  excavators for their ease of transport on the narrow roads.

The cab was locked.

Lots of Cottonwood colorful goodness!
