New York, here we come!

I am half packed. We will be up around 2 a.m. tomorrow I suppose to go to Toledo. Our train leaves around 4 a.m. Our weather is good today and supposed to be okay tomorrow. Our last train ride was on the dinner train in Stillwater. That ride is about 3 hours long and you are served a wonderful 5 course meal. A group dressed in 1940's clothing including army uniforms stroll through the dining car and sing world war II songs. Very nice and entertaining. I heard that they went out of business but may have started up again. Anyway, I don't think we will be serenaded on this trip, but the food in the dining car may be very (expensive) good. There is a cafe car too with sandwiches etc served all day.We will decide tomorrow where we will dine. I am packing trail mix and granola bars for emmergency use. I think those trains can plow through a lot of snow, but you never know. I am just glad we are not driving. We still have an hour or so drive from Albany to Afton. Got extra batteries for my solitare game...my IPOD is charged..got my book and a spare in case I finish it so we are ready! May everyone have a Happy Christmas!
