Adventure Day: Colorado Railroad Museum

Our second adventure day was a trip to the movies, which I forgot to take pictures of. Things didn't go as planned. We bought tickets for Mr. Popper's Penguins, but the projector wasn't working, so they moved us to a different theater to watch Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked. I wouldn't have chosen it, but the kids thought it was great. It was Tyson's first time in a theater, and he loved it!

During week three of summer break we took a trip to the Colorado Railroad Museum in Golden. Since it's just a few minutes away from Scot's office he joined us there at lunchtime.

The kids all had a fun time exploring the trains, but Asher was especially interested. He asked us several times if the trains "used to be alive." We knew he meant if they had been real working trains, and it was fun to explain to him what the different cars carried, and where some of the different engines had run their routes.
