fun at Nut Tree Park - very pic heavy

fun with Koi; walk onto the bridge..they go nuts. Walk off the
bridge they swim away. On, off, on, off....poor little fishes.

Emmy spotted this dragonfly so my quest began to capture the
little bugger on film.
(this is about a 25% crop)

Think our food is trying to tell us something??
The anti-onion ring.

the animal Ian settled for; the zebra

Ians first choice of merry-go-round ride; the pink flamingo

I thought this guy was the COOLEST character on the merry-go-round
but Ian refused to ride it (hmph!)

Snapped this quick on the way out of the park.
This train is an icon to us Vacavillians.

I so love this pic of Ian and his Dad.

I'm pretty under the weather so I thought I'd share more of our day with the trains.
Enjoy!
Cool light fixture atop the trolley

Day 350 - we love da trains

My kidlins...heading off to Enjoy the train museum in Rio Vista.
I LOVE the fact I got both of their whole shadows in the pic.

"We're going to the beach!" (not sure who they're waving to...lol)


Personally, I can't get enough of this kind of pic


Sure his shirt is blown to heck...but I still like it.

The inside of the train....GORGEOUS wood. wow.


Stopping to grab the token

Cool, rusty, ol' trains

"Got my pumpkins Mom!"

The only photo I didn't take; my mom-in-law did but I loved the feel of it.

I did a radial blue on it to tune into his face.
