Tweetsie

If you only have one vacation day without rain, this is definitely where you should spend it.

It’s full of history.

DSC_0100

It’s got a real, operational steam engine train.

Don’t forget the horse rides.

Or the happy family.

But watch what you do. The law is serious ‘round these parts.

**Cough, cough, hack, hack*** It’s great!

If you’re too lazy to climb to the top, there’s a chair lift for you.

Do not miss the Tweetsie Twister. It’s a smashing good time. Literally.

If you’re a good mother, you’ll point out all the rules.

DSC_0198

Then let your children break them…

DSC_0194

Eeewwww! Deer slobber.

DSC_0201

Do goats really require a porch swing?

DSC_0210

Hey!

DSC_0221

What is Bug doing?

DSC_0224

Well, every little girl needs a fairy mask, doesn’t she?

DSC_0228

Or at least a dragon…

DSC_0231

Don’t forget to mine for precious gems.

DSC_0246

Whatcha got there Zman?

DSC_0249

Oh, the rides. If you’re afraid of heights, maybe you should just take some photos of your children, who do not appear to have the slightest worry about where they are.

Do not let your underage children drive.

But in case you forget, your whiplash will remind you the next morning.

Most importantly catch a ride on the Tweetsie Railroad. The sheriff and his posse will keep you safe.

DSC_0310

You can’t outsmart the sheriff.

DSC_0321

And we’re off!

DSC_0357

Yikes!

DSC_0360

There’s trouble a brewin’

DSC_0375

It’s alright, the Marshall has things under control.

DSC_0382

Oh no!

And we arrive back at Main Street, safe and sound.

DSC_0418

I let my baby go on this ride.

DSC_0421

She’s height-legal by a hair.

DSC_0422

Hey! What’s it doing?

DSC_0443

Aaahhh! Stop that!

DSC_0484

Why are my babies smiling?

DSC_0464

DSC_0474

This one doesn’t look too bad.

DSC_0530

DSC_0536

Um, hello? Where’s the ground?

DSC_0555

Yay! We made it!

Fadre – why don’t you take the next one?
