What a big day, and no pictures to show for it

We went for a family walk last night around town. Rhett loves to go see the train tracks so we headed for our regular spot. When we got there, Rhett spotted a train stopped a little north of town. We decided to go and get a better look. Ben walked Rhett up within about 30 feet and the engineer waved at Rhett out the window. "Wow, that's cool," is one of Rhett's favorite sayings. Then, the engineer came out and asked if Rhett wanted to come inside. Ben said Rhett was a little spooked at first, but warmed up enough to blow the whistle and scare Momma and Leah still out by the strollers! Of course I didn't have the camera or even my phone to take pictures. We are taking the train to Albuquerque in a few weeks to visit my aunt and go to the Hot Air Balloon Fiesta. He's already talking about it!
