4/15/08 an odd parade

I'm not sure what this was about and this picture doesn't do it justice, but this "parade" was on the street moving ever so slowly in front of our house. Waaaay in the front is a street sweeper. Behind that is a front-end loader/tractor kind of vehicle. Behind that is a dump truck. And not in this picture 'cuz it just turned the corner, but behind the dump truck was a City of Farmington water truck. The street sweeper was cleaning the street but I don't understand what all the other vehicles were there for. I hope someone will comment and fill me in.

Hi,
My husband says that: The water truck fills the water tank on the sweeper truck that sprayes the dirt to keep the dust down. The sweeper truck vacums up the dirt and when its dirt containter is full it dumps the dirt into the loader that then puts the dirt into the dump truck. Wouldn't it be nice if they could recycle the dirt for next year;)
