I've Been Workin' on The Railroad (Jack tells all...)

I was so excited…Dad got us tickets to Thomas the Train!  With eager anticipation I waited, and waited and waited.  With all the trees in bloom and warm weather we were having, this was sure to be the best day of my life!  Come on!  I get to see all my island of Sodor friends!  ( and there are hardly any girl trains…which I am glad about because I am not fond of girls…except Mommy and Nonna…and Aunt Holly…never mind, I take that back)

So, I am not sure because I am still a kid, but this was the coldest and nastiest day (weather wise) ever!  But hail, wind and rain were not going to stop me and my pops from going to see Thomas.  I was going to take that 25 minute ride if my life depended on it!  And that was exactly what I did….it was so fun…I think even Dad enjoyed himself.  And I got to meet Sir Topham Hat, to boot.  There were times when we were talking, that I thought the wind would blow over Sir Topham Hat and Dad…but they stayed strong.  I want to be just like that when I grow up!

I am the coolest kid ever…I got to be a junior engineer for the day.  I got a cool hat and a special certificate stating how I have completed all of junior engineer requirements: riding the train, shaking hands with all the right people,  doing the maze and playing in the “Engine Shed”.  My life is good….

I wonder what Daddy has planned for me next???
