My hubby and I went on a little vacation with my parents this week. We went to Colorado to take a historic train ride. This old steam engine goes from Durango to Silverton and back through some really beautiful scenery. We rode on the "Silver Vista" train car that has open sides and a glass domed top so that you have a great view in every direction. For part of the trip, you could reach out of one side of the train car and touch the rock face and on the other side you were looking down a steep cliff at the Animas river waaayyyy below.
This vacation included a lot of driving because we took the scenic route all the way there but it was well worth it. The snow is melting and there were numerous waterfalls coming down the sides of the mountains. We made lots of stops along the way to take pictures and admire the beauty. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone old enough to appreciate scenery and not ask "are we there yet?"because this is the kind of trip where the fun is in the travel not in the destination.
