We left on Friday night and took the train down - such a fun experience. Before we got on the train, I went to see Craig in his office. Here he is!
So on the train down there, we decided to tough it out and get seats instead of getting a sleeper... An experience. Actually, it would be fine for even an all-day trip - the seats were really comfortable, but trying to sleep was a different story. Live and learn :)
Once we got down there, the trip took a bit of a different turn than was planned. The Little Cutie Trey was sick, and the baptism had to be postponed til he's feeling better. He's doing better now, but nobody wanted him to get everyone else sick! Plus, it just wouldn't have done to get sick at church :) It was good seeing everyone, though - sickies and all (the Harrison girls were also sick and home from school!).
Even though Trey was icky-sicky, he was still SO CUTE!
So on the way back home, we had a sleeper on the train. Much better, and highly recommended. It was really a nice way to travel. You do wake up quite a bit because the train stops, but it was really nice not to have to deal with air travel - a wonderful alternative! Here's Craig on the train before the beds were pulled down. He was such a trooper and insisted on having the top bunk.
So now we're back in Chicago. Thought everyone might get a kick out of my view today:
That's the view looking South towards downtown... Super foggy today - I've never seen anything like it. Also, they are calling for possible snow showers on Thursday! I've never had a White Christmas, much less a White Thanksgiving!!
