July Vacation - Light Rail Day and The State Capital

We were ended up having to come back home earlier to attend funeral services for my great uncle.  So as being home, we decided that we would enjoy our own city and take a ride along light rail.  Miles has always enjoyed train rides and to him this was just as much a train ride as any.  We bought our tickets and took a ride from our neighborhood to downtown.  We enjoyed lunch and took a stroll around the state capital.

 There were several different bells there.   Miles loved learning about each of them

Miles is all tired out after all that walking.  Good thing we are ready to 

head back to catch the light rail home...and time for our afternoon nap.
