Pardon me boy, is that the Chatanooga Choo Choo?





The platform

Conductor Bob

The Caboose

Waiting For the PAssangers to Board, OPen coach 1818



There were even train robbers!


They Gave Out Money

There was a sheriff that deputized the kids

We Played Rock, Paper Scissors...Rook called Jesus that couldn't be beat...he won



Kris is getting his wear out of that hat and he wore blue striped shorts like an engineer










One tired Cowgirl fell asleep on the ride back...
Today we rode the Tarantula Train that goes from Grapevine, Tx to Ft.Worth, Tx.  It takes you to the Ft. Worth Stockyards which is about as Texan as you can get.  We got to do the Cattle stall maze, mechanical bull and see the Longhorn cattle drive through downtown Ft. Worth.  Rook was a huge train fan in Alabama, so it was fun telling him all about how much he used to love them and usually carried one around with him for about a year and a half of his little life.  He even put one down the white tunnel with water, ( a.k.a. the potty ),that cost us $200.00 from a plumber to fix and a replacement train.  Proverbs 22:6 says, "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will depart from it."  It was fun making memories today...
