Grandkids visit the In-ko-pah Railroad

Our foster daughter and her husband and three little girls recently moved back to San Diego after living in Arizona for the past few years. Last weekend they came to visit us, and saw the railroad in person for the first time. Here are a few pics of the girls' reactions:

I'm glad to see that your grandchildren enjoyed it from their expressions in the pictures. One of my grandfathers is one of the reason why I'm into garden railroading. Maybe you got 3 more to play with trains outside...Whistling - Peter

Looks like major fun was had by the girls, the stuffed animals, and of course, Grandpa.

Congratulations.  You now have lizards and children running wild in your layout!

Seriously, you have a beautiful family and a beautiful layout.  Your God has smiled on you.

Thanks! Yes, we are very blessed. We have six grandkids, including our son's three. They're in Texas but so far they've been able to make it out here at least once a year.
