on a recent family outing, my family and i went to see the trains in the Santa Cruz Mountains.
it was Thomas the Train Day, and the place was all ready for all the kids. it was a pleasant day.
i took some pix of a steam donkey.
i'm assuming they are restoring it.
it sure would be neat to see and hear her breathe again.

here's some pictures for the interested!
