Miniature Trains at MSI

Taken at the Miniature Train exhibit at the Museum of Science and Industry.

When the train whizzes by, it actually does make the boat look like it's moving, too.
Only one is in motion

I met my husband at the small building to the right of the Stone diamond building. The building is closed now, but here it is immortalized forever at the MSI Miniature Train exhibit. Haha!

If I were a kid again

Construction paper chains

If I were a kid again I could go to camp and make construction paper chains and staple them to a paper plate and watch them swing in the summer breeze, instead of going to an office and staring out the windows longingly.

Although, who am I kidding? When I was a kid I liked to stay inside and curl up on the couch and read or watch TV and wait for my mom or grandmother to yell at me to go outside already and play in the sun while it was still nice out. I would do it better if I could do it again. I think. :)
