A new train

We found this cool new train, but it was sort of long

 Moo with a new jet pack likes his home

 Truck stop with RR crossing gates

 The long train carefully maneuvers through the trestle and bend

Train Ride at Burke Lake

Nothing better than a train ride in the woods

 Even this train

 All aboard

 Witches having fun

 The train even stopped to trick or treat

Four plus miles

In addition to doing the entire Burke Lake loop

 we visited a small version of the horseshoe curve (VA style)

 Time to get fit

 and fitter

 Seems the track switches were set wrong severl times leading off the correct track

The lake in the tree

Nice place for a slug to live

 make that slugs

Early Birthday Gift

As you will see, we could not wait to give this sweatshirt as a birthday gift.  One of us picked the patches while the other sewed them on.  Oh yea, one of us has an exact matching sweatshirt.

Renfest, MD

Checking out the possibilities while tickets are purchased

 The meeting of two tall people

 Dressing up is optional.  Some were much more dressed up than these two

 Lot's of food but the most fun to hear were cheesecake on a stick, and steak on a stake

Lots to do

You have to love a sword with fire

 he actually won at pinball

 Lets just say we may have fired warning shots

 got to love a dragon in a cage

The Falcon Show

was a hit, after he stopped talking so much

 a close up view after the show was a bonus

The ship

The ship provided lots of high energy fun

 getting onboard, secret stairs below decks

 and even under the gangway

A show

For some, there was only one part worth watching

 this part, the sword fight

 otherwise, it was a nice time to rest and play iPhone games.  After the show it was souvenir dragon tee shirts and home
