Day 9: Train Ride - St. Elmo

 Today's agenda started with a train ride. We drove to Leadville (I used to walk these streets as a kid) and boarded a restored train that preserved a portion of the old railroad system. Again, Zeke has some amazing footage from this trip. It was beautiful. One of the workers told stories and history the entire trip up. The trip back was for viewing pleasure only (hence the quick little nap Josh and I took before we stopped).








After the train ride we meandered downtown Leadville for a little bit before heading back to the cabin.




Some of the kids wanted to go swimming so we dropped off the swimmers at our cabin and Rainy, Josh and I headed to St. Elmo's, a ghost town, to walk around and feed the chipmunks.
