Train Ride

My sister, Susan, and her family were invited to ride a train from Weiser to Ontario which is about 20 miles away. Her husband had to work at the last minute, and she didn't want to go alone she invited Alden, Collyn, and I.

Alden is very interested in trains right now. We watch Thomas the Tank Engine and other train shows on Netflix. I woke Alden up from his nap early to go, which could have been a good thing or bad thing.

When we got to the train station in town, which is not a functioning train station, basically a historical monument of our town, Alden just stared at the train and said, "CHOO CHOO!!"

We got on the train and waited a few minutes for it to leave. Alden was in heaven! We rode to Ontario and back and the entire time Alden stared out the window in Awe and enjoyed every minute of it. Collyn slept through most of it and then nursed at the end of the ride.

Alden was pretty cranky afterward because I woke him up from his nap, but how could I pass up taking him on a train ride???
