My daughter Rebecca is visiting from Nebraska with her 2 kids, Andrew, Emma, and Olivia. Brenda and I are having a wonderful time with them and are going to hate to see them leave.
Last week, my eldest son, David, with 2 of his 3 boys (Matthew and Nathan) took Becky's 2 oldest kids (Andrew and Emma) on a train ride on the FrontRunner. Its a commuter train between Salt Lake City and Ogden. While there we visited the railroad museum. The kids are all train fanatics (anyone heard of Thomas the Tank Engine?). They were thrilled. Wide-eyed. The trip was a bit long and by the end they were exhausted, as were David and Me, and little Emma fell asleep on my lap, but I suspect they would do it all over if given a chance.
The photo on my sidebar shows David and me, with the 4 kids in front of the FrontRunner train.
Sounds like a great time. My parents took me to see some trains, and to ride the cog up Mount Washington, when I was younger.
ReplyDeleteGood times.
They had a great time dad. Thanks for taking them. We had fun while we were there. Miss you all.
