Trains


"Choo-choo." Misty found out about a reading session at one of the book stores. I've got one thing that I think a book store would be able to give to the reader of the book, and that would be a book, right? But evidently, the book store didn't have the book, the lady was reading from a photocopy of the book. A photocopy?! What the heck, man.

So Jack listens to the story for a little bit, screams out "truck" every chance he can, then goes off to find a train set in the store and falls in love. Little did Jack know we have a storage box filled with trains. I got it out that afternoon after Misty told me his joy over the trains. It's setup now in the TV room. Jack loves it.

So do the girls. They are all over it, the train set is everything that they wanted and didn't get in . . . wait, uh, I think they have everything they wanted. I remember with Terra, my biggest trap was setting up the train track so it was too complex. Now the girls are ready to setup the complex mazes that are possible with the tracks, but Jack gets overwhelmed and the trains get frustrating for him when he can't make a 270 degree right turn on a Y shaped track.

Alea is over and has put together a nice track with bridges, circle's, curves, and all the goot stuff. Jack is ramming his train head on to her train.
