Golden Spike

I decided that we needed to get out and have a fun adventure, so I called up my good friend Melissa and we hopped into the car and drove, and drove out to the middle of nowhere in 100+ degree temperatures. BUT we had a BLAST! The older kids had learned about Promontory Point in school. So they were pretty excited to see where the East railroad met the West. They had a replica of the Golden Spike in the Visitor's Center and we were able to watch a movie (Charlie Brown of course!!) about the building of the railroad. They even ran one of the trains for us to watch. Super fun and super educational! The perfect combination.
