We relaxed for the evening and got up early Saturday morning to ride SAM Shortline RR from Cordele, GA to Archery, GA with stops in Americus and Plains.
The kids enjoyed watching automobiles stopping at the RR crossing for our train.
Leaving Cordele, the train went very slow. It finally picked up speed as we left the city limits.
Chris enjoyed the train ride with Grandpa.
DeAnna enjoyed it with Grandma.
When the train stopped in Americus, it was time for lunch. Some of the restaurants were closed for the long weekend. We finally found a restaurant/book store around the corner from the historic Windsor Hotel. We enjoyed some sandwiches and then headed back to the train.
Someone in this picture always has an afternoon nap after lunch and the other person is playing possum. Wonder who is who? Hmmmm.
For kicks Bob took a picture of me and the kids in front of Carter's campaign headquarters.
From Plains we went to Archery where Jimmy Carter spent his boyhood years. We stayed on the train as everyone was beat! From Archery we returned to Cordele. Everyone rested on the return trip.
We had a great time riding the train!
