Mark and I lived in the Lancaster area prior to moving to AK, and the PA Railroad Museum is in the area. With our boys' penchant for trains, we have for several years now said how much we would like to take them whenever we were back east. Well, we finally had our chance! We toured the museum with Mark's dad, and then met up with Tom and Jenny and Aunt Carol, Uncle David, and Fred for lunch at one of our old favorite restaurants, and then the "Under 35 crowd" went on a short but genuine train ride! Unfortunately it was a very rainy day (actually one of the very few rainy days we had the whole trip!), so we didn't get to tour many of the trains displayed outside. But there were plenty to admire and climb on and in-the boys loved it! And they were just amazed to get to ride on a real train...and they liked the little Thomas ride a whole lot, too. :) One of the great things about the day was that mom stayed with Anna back at Tom and Jenny's...so she had an enjoyable day instead of being carted in and around through the rain in the baby backpack. A great day was had by all!

Is that the Strasburg Railroad? I think we are planning a trip there in the Spring!
