Chase's friend Easton came up for the first time and stayed a few days with us. We were getting a little board around the house so we decided to go sight seeing. We took the kids over to Golden Spike at P point to see the trains. We got there 30 minutes before it was closing but it was perfect because they were just getting ready to move the trains back into the garages. So one train was already moved but we still got to see one train move. We took a quick up close look at the train before it left.
After the train left, we went back inside and watched a quick movie about the trains meeting. Bridger was so funny because he kept saying "I don't get it." So we would explain it again but he had a hard time understanding why this was a historic site and a "big deal." It had been really hot during the week but luckily some thunderclouds rolled in and cooled it off for us. As we were walking out to the car it started to sprinkle on us. I would rather have than then the hot sun beating down on us.
The Jupiter train is a real steam engine. The boys wanted to take a silly picture so they laid down on the railroad tracks and pretended like they were sleeping or dead.
Then we headed out to see the rockets at ATK. The kids were pretty impressed with the rockets. Tanner was only interested in throwing rocks. They had fun climbing on everything.
