My parents were visiting my grandparents in Oklahoma last week and stopped in Boone on their way back home. I was excited to be able to treat them to a ride on the Boone Scenic Valley Railroad today. The train in the picture is the actual train that we rode on, although the picture is off of the internet. The bridge that the train is going over is called the Kate Shelley High Bridge. I'll admit that I was very nervous to go across it. While I'm not really afraid of heights, I do get a little wigged out about not having anything on the sides...I mean, what if the wind blew the train off of the track?
Anyhow, we had a good time and really enjoyed the fall scenery. It also gave my mom and dad time to get to know Bryce and Hailey since they went too. Bryce kept calling the train Thomas the Tank. I think he might have been a little disappointed or confused when we got off the train and he saw that the engine was actually black!
