10/11 Post Train Ride

So this was a really fabulous day. I'm pretty convinced that I'm spoiled rotten. The train was pretty amazing, but I think we both have view overload! We will be uploading our pictures to the Durango Silverton album. No captions yet, and no video.
The whole experience of traveling through the mountains on an old-fashioned train was neat it itself, but then our AARP buddies started talking to the conductor, Mike Nichols, and we found out out that he is from a railroading family. His grandfather was a conductor as well.
