Since Advent Should be a Joyous time, I’m posting about a recent childhood memory revisited that did not disappoint: Welcome to the 1880 Train in the Black Hills of South Dakota. This is actually an oil powered steam engine from the 1920’s, Engine #104. Engine #7, which pulled our train ride in 1969 has been…

I highly recommend Canyonlands if you are passing through the area. Often a bit less crowded than Arches, because its a longer drive to get into the heart of the…
