// Squamish
Sometimes I love school... I think of all the poor suckers who are all locked up in class rooms, studying up science, working on math, all that kind of stuff, while I'm out in beautiful Squamish... And how beautiful it was. The clouds seemed to just disappear after Horshoe Bay and it was clear and sunny, and even hot at times!
Yes, I was in Squamish today! We were playing with trains! We were at the museum up in Squamish and I decided to look around the museum first, do all the fun stuff at the end of the day. But I mean there all trains its all too much fun! Just one was more fun then the other.
I got to see the Royal Hudson... Long time no see, and it was weird to see it in such a condition it was in. I've seen pictures of her getting restored, but never really seen her in real life with all the running boards taken off and what not. I actually got to go inside the boiler! Wow... I've never done something like that before...
Nick drove a couple of us into Squamish where we went to Burger King! Yea, we felt pretty cool cruising in Squamish... What a nice city it is too! I wouldn't mind living up there, yet then again, I think I would go crazy!
Switching... That was the best part of the day... You may not realize it, but jumping onto moving things is fun! Like really fun! Like holy crap! I've been on a train before, but I never have got to ride on the side! That was completely awesome! It's pretty dangerous, if you screw up it means your life. One of my friends actually jumped off on the wrong foot and ended up falling down. Actually I was the only guy who detrained properly. We learned many other things like switching, and cutting in the air. It really was a fun day!
To think I'm actually going to get paid to do this!?!? Get out of town!
