Collier County Sheriff's Office......

That is who we spent the day with. The Sheriff's office had a block party where they showed off different areas of the Sheriff's office. Raul was doing a demo with Kaspr so we thought we would go watch.
They started with a chase, Raul in a truck and Jesse in the squad car chasing him. Raul stopped the truck and went running when Jesse let the dog (Guiness) go. Very fun to watch.
The next scenario, Jesse was trying to steal a bag from someone(me) and Raul used the door popper(opens the car door when he is away from the car) and Kaspr came running out to bite Jesse.
Kaspr still hanging on.

Kaspr with the prize :)

We also were able to check out the helicopter. Luke loved it.
Next the swat truck, Luke put on all the gear. Talk about heavy, I think it weight more than him. To cute
Inside the swat vehicle. He even climbed on top.

Faith was with us for a little bit. I was able to get 2 pictures before she took off to go to a friends house.

Now to one of Papa's favorite areas, The Bomb Squad. This is the outfit they have to wear when dealing with anything. You can also see in the back the computer that they move the robot with.
They told us all about the robot that they just got in October and then blew up a box with the water cannon. Box in good shape.
Box being blown up. It was very loud. After that they set off just some explosives. You could feel the ground shake and your insides wiggle, really.
This beautiful horse was big, I mean really really big. She pushed these barrels around and also played with the ball.
After a long day the boys decided to try out the segway's. This was their first time on them. I was sure Raul would end up on the ground but he said it was really easy.
Boys and their toys is all I have to say. I guess we will let them play since they had a long day.
As Luke said on the way home "This was the best day."
