The Train to Silverton


So it's been a little while since I've posted anything new. We haven't had the internet for a while. Since we thought we were going to be moving and because we also needed a new wireless router, we just went ahead and cancelled our internet. I've been going crazy without it all this time! Now that we have internet again, I have some catching up to do. We went to our Higgins family reunion back in July and Kolby got to ride on the Silverton with his cousin Trevor and my younger brother and his wife. There was a mudslide the previous night, however, so the train did not actually go all the way to Silverton. We were going to drive up to Silverton (in the car) and meet them to switch places so that Mallorie, Jeremy, and I could ride the train back to Durango, but because of the slide, we were not able to. So I still have not been to Silverton. Maybe another time. They said it was really warm on the train without any air conditioning anyway, so maybe in the Fall it would be a better time to go. We have rode the train once before. It wasn't very far, but when the kids were just little, we took this same train for the Polar Express.
