Tweetsie Railroad

What a cool place to take your kids. Tweetsie is a neat place to go and the setting is beautiful. The drive from Lake Lure to Boone was approximently 2 hours. It took us about 2 1/2 because the fog was so bad and Collins could only drive but so fast (plus can you say curvy) Locals. It was a little cold and overcast at first (why Wes looks like Larry Bird with his socks up to his knees) but the day turned out to be perfect. Lawson's favorite part was the train. We saw the cowboys and indians and I think the Indians won. We tried to see the cloggers but our timing was off (sorry Jenn ex-clogger)

The kids were perfect!! Lawson really had a good time. I so wanted to buy her a cowgirl hat (like our freind Avery) but she wanted an "expensive" ring. So we upgraded this time and bought her a $2.99 ring. We haven't lost or broken this one yet. She is such a girly girl!

Wes just hung out with me. Never complained or squirmed one time. I think he liked the view and got to see everything with little effort.

First, we had to Saddle up to get to the train!


On the train ride... Lawson is not so sure about this. Wes, on the other hand, is saying "bring it on"


Lawson loved feeding the goats!


Yuck they are licking me!! (i am such a wimp)


Panning for gold. We didn't luck into any this time.
