Thanksgiving in Burlington

Dad and I rode the train home from our trip. It only had 11 cars which surprised me. It was fun and a different way to travel. I learned some things I would do next time, and it made me feel bad that dad had to travel home last time with no sleeping berth.

This is a reservoir in Colorado
Ben and Henry reverently throwing crabapples at grandpa at the Nauvoo temple. Grandpa started it!
Henry manning the guns overlooking the Mississippi - glad someone is watching out for the invaders.
Nixon, Henry, Cohen and Ben with their new buzzes. The suburban was a big hit as a base camp.
This morning I have loved watching the birds eat the leftover apples on the tree. It was 11 degrees this morning
