Trains
For my birthday this year, Nov.13, my daughter came and with my sister, we drove to Longwood Gardens, in Pa. My daughter, Lavinia's grandparents Jones, met us there. Her grandmother volunteers there and she gave us a tour. We saw the thing I had most hoped to see before the exhibition period ended, the Garden Train set up. It had it all, several sets of trains, many levels, a tunnel, gorgeous landscaping. Possibly nothing can ever compare with the train set up at Jim Thorp, but that is closed now and will not reopen anymore. Anyhow, why compare or compete, if you love trains, go to Longwood while the exhibition is still there, Until the end of the month, it is the chrysanthemum festival. We saw the giant with 1100 blossoms, and the Bonsai trees and many other natural wonders, but my great delight was the trains.
