Early This Morning

My husband and I took my sister to meet her train this morning before 6:00,    Short ride for us and it was a lovely morning.  Best time of day to get things done.

Randolph Macon college behind me


I like how the tracks have brick sidewalk added and much better lighting with rain and wind shelter.
Much more pleasant wait

Train day and an antique shop.

Grand girls and their Mom took in Train day with us on Saturday.

I think the crowds are getting more each year.

in front of a screen and of course the sun was shining right in Genevieves eyes

A neat art shop.  Re Funk It.  Some neat things in here like this phone Genevieve really liked.
She never saw one like it and Opa was explaining that we had one like that and she, I believe thought there was really a light bulb on the end.
This one of course is made into a lamp.

This picture taken outside of the shop 






I thought this was so cute made with hand clippers and hoe it looks to be



How about this little doggy with horseshoes and golf clubs and a manual drill I guess it is.






Curb sitting lunch




Genevieve wanted to see inside a fire engine



Fine vintage cars on display



later in the evening I went to a vintage shop and purchased a vintage table cloth that I will use on Christmas and a cherub that I will probably put into a wreath.


I like these candle holders with greenery and  candle.   I didn't get these but they gave me an idea.

I like trains

Here is one I took at the Science Museum of Va.  about 3 years back.   







Seth was amazed by the size and the weight of this Puffer belly, and  so am I.
