Well, you're not just plain (or plane) folk in those parts. :)
When you do those collages, is the process automated, or do you fiddle with it each timeÉ
Ooooooh, what a little darling your granddaughter is. :)))
Love the train and boat ride. Those are our kind of entertainment, too.
What a wonderful trip you're having. So glad Grenville is enjoying the trains. The new grand is absolutely precious.
I would have loved going on that trip! I´ve never even seen a steam boat in real life so that would have been a great bonus :-)
Your grand daughter is very cute :-)
Have a great day!
Christer.

This is right up my alley. I love the train and the boat ride. The baby is cute, too. :)
Aw...love the little granddaughter. What a sweetie! How wonderful that grandpa and grandson share a love of trains. :)
I am a lover of steam engines. Thank God for those who keep them going.

Have fun! Enjoy the little ones!
What a beautiful baby! I woul,d have lovd to take the train ride. I really enjoy your blog, I'll be back!
Ho Folks, glad you enjoyed the train and granddaughter photos, even if some preferred the trains first :-)
AC, the collage process is so easy using Picasa. Just select the photos, use the create collage option and it does the rest - automatically, easily and it's fun and FREE.
Lois & Christer, we've taken the train AND riverboat ide a few years ago, sans grandson. Only the day we took the boat trip was very rainy, unlike this week's sunny weather.
Thanks Christina, Dandra, Daisy...she is very cute and tiny too!
Thanks Kjell, but the riverboat seems dwarfed compared to your ships.
We agree, John. Amen to those who run the trains & boats!
Thanks Sherry & Possum. We are really enjoying our visit and the sidetrips we get to re-enjoy with grandkids, well at least 1 at this point.
Welcome Debbie. Thanks for the comment. Please do visit again and we will do the same!
precious.. oh she is gorgeous.. and her brother is cute too.. love,Diana
What a sweetheart little Elizabeth is. There's something so very special about a newborn. It's amazing how quickly they outgrow that stage.
First off I pray you all have a safe trip to meet with family and the newest memeber. She is precious and so pretty. I hope you all have a wonderful time.
Now that boat trip would be something I would love to do.
Hope you stay cool.
Awww..... so cute!
One of these days I'm going to have some grands.... sigh!!!
