We left the house at 2pm. Bradley came from the hospital. Rick left work early. We talked about everything in the car but mostly what was happening around us and politics. She is going to become a Republican.
We found the station but had a cup of coffee first. We parked right in front which was a blessing since Rick is still limping. We walked up to the platform and waited with about fourty other people, mostly seniors. There is a large red building that easily could have been a hotel at one time.
The train was a bit late. We showed do the tickets to the nice young girl and we boarde. The train is the ending and a long Halloween decorated dining car with about twenty tables streamed the length of the car. Once we were all seated, the hostess announced we were ready to leave.
We were served a beverage in a glas with the train logo carved in it. B ordered the different meals, mine was macaroni and chicken pieces. All the meals were tasty and filling. The ride was past gorgeous fall scenery. The whole trip was sucessful.
With a long whistle we left Staunton. The first part of the trip the train stayed close to the highway.250. We passed the same building we see on the roads. Next we moved into the hinterland, the woods and farms of rural Va.
