There is an historic railroad that runs near our house and we drive by it
all the time. Since Parker is really into trains I looked into riding it when we first moved here.
But it only runs on Sunday which doesn't work for us. Luckily, a few
weeks ago a friend of ours organized a train ride for a Thursday
afternoon. Since the ride was going to be 90 minutes and you are supposed to
stay seated the whole time, I decided to get Tory to stay home with
Oliver (it was going to be in the middle of his nap anyway). Parker,
Penelope and I packed a lunch and headed over to the train station. There
were a ton of moms and kids (all pretty much under 5) but we all got
loaded up and headed out. It was so fun, I'm glad I waited until the
twins were a little older, they were just fine sitting and watching the
countryside go by. The ride was a little long but all in all we had a great time!
