School's almost out! The kids are counting down the hours now, as tomorrow is their last day. They have awards day which only lasts until about 10 a.m. Then it is officially summer at the Rhodes' house! However, we felt like summer really started for us this past weekend as we enjoyed a couple of family excursions. The first was to the Monticello Railway Museum, to ride the train.
We rode the coach into town...
and on the way back, we rode the caboose. Micah and Rachel found this to be the best part of the trip. Do you see the windows on the top? That's where we sat, in the cupola!
After a picnic lunch and a quick tour of some restored passenger cars, we headed for home so Josiah could have a nap. When I woke him up later in the day, his eyes popped open and he whispered, "Ride a train?"
