WE went to the Cuyahoga Valley Train and did the bike and ride option. We boarded the train in Peninsula with our bikes on a special bike car, then rode to the Botzum station where we disembarked and then biked the seven miles back to Peninsula on the tow path. While we were on the train Emma discovered the on board snack bar. She bought two sticks of rock candy which are featured in these pictures. During the ride back we saw lots of lovely scenery and wild life. Emma did a great job of riding that far. And as she enjoyed the outing in the national park I was reminded of a statement she made while we vacationed in South Carolina as she was wondering about a species of tree she did not recognize, "it is strange to be someplace I do not know the nature." I think this really summurizes how Emma experiences her life in her environment. She is outside knowing the world she lives in.
