Lego Trains for Thanksgiving

We got out the old Lego trains this weekend, and Will was up at the crack of dawn to build them. He built the trains most of the day.
Rory spent quality time with the trains as well

After a full day of playing with the trains, the trains and track had been completely disassembled. We spent part of Thursday evening sorting and rebuilding the train cars . Everyone helped put things back together.

Ladders in New Mexico

On vacation in New Mexico Linda and I visited a number of pueblos and old cliff dwellings. One notable feature of all of these places was the number and size of the ladders. Linda and I climbed more ladders than I care to count.
