Pirates and Trains
We made our obligatory stop at the aptly named Souvenir City where the kids posed for pictures inside the shark's mouth and on the pirate ship facade. There's also a picture of Mittens meeting the hermit crabs. Afterward we went to the Foley Railroad Museum and O-gauge model train. Admission is free!

A trio of small planes flew off into the sunset and then back again (I shared those photos last night). A thunderstorm had drifted … Continue reading O Gladsome Light
