The Wonder of Trains

Have you ever been to Flemington, NJ? Have you ever heard of Flemington, NJ? We hadn't either - until this weekend.

Flemington is home to Northlandz which has the world's largest model railroads. Given, that we are not connoisseurs of model railroads, I'm not going to argue with this claim (the site has a seal from the Guinness Book of World Records and when has the internet ever been wrong?). Even if it's not actually the world's largest, it's pretty big - like 8 miles of track with a meandering 1 mile walkway to view it all.

It's big. And the boys absolutely loved it - exclaiming at almost every train that appeared from the nearly 400 tunnels and pointing out all of the bridges (and there were a lot of bridges). It was a fun day - worth the drive and something we'll likely do again.

Of course - pictures.

Echo echo echo...

We welcomed a new pet to our home: Echo, a lovely red Betta. The name is all Spence, though he did pose a few other suggestions. Spence: I'm going to name it Bluey. Me: the fish is red. Spence: then I'll name it Reddy. Me: Let's stick with Echo. That's a cool name.
