Good to be back........

We arrived safely back to James's parents farm in the Western Maryland on the late Friday evening, and welcomed by James's parents and the cool weather... it felt really good! (It was chilly to me:)

Next day, we had a breakfast with James's parents, brother John, Great Grandma, Uncle Brad, and Nan at the local Mennonite restaurant, Casselman's and then went to the family cabin on the Deep Creek Lake to get it ready for the July 4th family reunion.

 James and the boys helped Pappy stacking hay in the barn in the evening! 

boys are having a great time!

        

Next day, we went to ride the Western Maryland scenic train from Cumberland to Frostburg, then back to Cumberland with James's parents, and brother John.  I found out that my father-in-law's father was a Western Maryland Railway train conductor back in old days..so cool!...we were originally going to ride a steam engine but it had a leak that morning so we had to ride a regular train but we had a nice time with Nan, Pappy, and uncle John! 

:: Curious boys:)

:: Watched a train engine turning for a return trip to Cumberland..

:: Ate lunch @ Trail Inn:)

:: Dad and Mom.. (Dad is wearing Western Maryland Railway hat)

:: Could't miss the famous creamery near the train station:) to complete a fun day.
