I took the old No. 18 up to a country/folk concert with the Old/New Weavers... some were new Weavers but two played with Pete Seeger. So it was folk song weekend. The best song of the day was This Land is Your Land. Another was Michael Smith who wrote The Dutchman, a song I ahd not heard till recently but s pretty well known in most circles. We did see interesting sites and long grades. I felt that choo, choo sound and rhythm again.
By the way, we road this train for 2.5 hours into the mountains to Fir, Co. for the concert. So it was a 'fir piece...."The only thing in Fir is a concert stage and some elk. It is at 12,000 ft. or so. Some musicians have to take oxygen to keep playing.
We also saw a double rainbow... see above. It is the first time I actually saw where the rainbow ended... but alas the gold is still in the rocks.
Kelly and Kathryn, I liked it but envy your experience too.
Nice. We have been thinking about trains and taking a trip some time soon. But Jack is starting school about now and so it goes.
