Well Kids, tonights the night! I've passed through all of my training on heavy equipment at the mine, and tonight at long last I get to run the second largest loader in the world. To put that picture into persective, the top of that bucket is some 45 ft in the air. Crazy huh? I was on it observing yesterday, and was really shocked by what a piece of machinery it truly is. Funny how you can haul loads off of it for years, but never really have much admiration for it til you finally hop on. Wish me (and the drivers I'll be loading) luck!

Nice work, dude. Good luck.
