Train Ride

Last night I got a wild hair to take a train ride. A few weeks ago we stopped by the Minnehaha Depot in Minnehaha Park and I found out there's a train preservation society (www.trainride.org) in St. Paul that runs a short line out in Osceola, WI. Being our party month I figured price was no object and we got up at the crack of 9am to drive to Wisconsin and ride the old time train.

I thought it was cool, and I think some of my enthusiasm rubbed of on wife-wife since she didn't seem to entirely hate it. I kind of wish now that the windows opened on the Amtrak, it was nice getting the smell of the forest as you ride through it. Posted some pics of the trip if you want to glance at them.
