Train trip

Last weekend, Kellan participated in the Funshop Amtrak train ride from Springfield to far away Lincoln, IL. Well, far away by about 35 miles. He loved every minute, primarily because 99% of his waking life is consumed by the thought of trains.

Here he is, on the platform awaiting the train. Shall I confess that, even when not riding the train, one of his favourite activities is doing just this -- standing on the platform awaiting the train? Yes, that would be the train that he is not going to ride, but who's mere presence in his life is enough to cause screaming, jumping up and down, and much waving of arms. I blame his father.
