Viewing Album:  A visit to Allentown Yard with Grandpa
 
By:Bob Krug
Dates:4/20/2013 - 4/20/2013
Album Info:It's not too surprising that my 2-1/2 year old grandson has developed an interest in trains. This past Saturday he was happy to go out with Grandpa for a morning adventure at Allentown yard. There’s lots of choo-choo action to keep him engaged/attentive, and when there are lulls in the action we walk down to the Lehigh Canal and throw rocks into the water to pass the time before the next choo-choo comes along. Come to think of it, these are things that also appeal to a 60-year old!
