Joy Line Railroad

Well, we made the trip into West Virginia and made it out alive. No banjos or funny lookin guys with straw hats or anything. We also didn't stop at Kumie's favorite casino. Didn't think I should buy the boys smokes and give them a cup full of nickels for the slot machines. We did however stop at the Joy Line Railroad and model train museum. The boys loved the little train that went in a circle and really loved the hand carts. Many pictures of both in the flickr collection.

We had lunch in Harpers Ferry and then headed across the Potomac into Maryland to see a Train Museum in Brunswick and then down to White's Ferry for an old fashioned ferry ride back across the Potomac into Virginia. This journey took about 6 hours and was a good test for this summers longer trips. The boys did well and watched Shrek while rolling through some beautiful country roads in Maryland. Oh well, they loved the trains and Sam was awake for the ferry ride.
