My old handbell teacher from Bellevue First Pres just happened to show up for a KBTC pledge event discussing local trains. He invited us to come to Chehalis to ride the steam train there and we took him up on it! And we're so glad we did. We had a fabulous time on the 1 1/2 hour ride. And afterwords, Rick even took us into the engine! He let the girls blow the whistle and even let mom play engineer for a bit. Mom liked that kind of power. Emma's highlight was holding Rick's dogs inside the train. She kind of missed the point - but that kid loves her animals. We also went to the Penny Playground in Chehalis - a cool wooden park built by a community of volunteers there. So much fun.
