Not quite ready for a union card

QUITE A THRILL-Bryce Thomas, 3, of Westlake Village gets a little help from Gary Brown as he operates a backhoe at last Saturday's Touch a Truck event at the Thousand Oaks Community Center. In spite of the heat, a sizeable crowd showed up to check out the vehicles on display. The event was hosted by Conejo Recreation & Park District. See related photo on page 23.
