The Train Ordeal

You've read our guest post earlier from first timers Joe and Kathryn. After some coaxing from Adam and Sarah Young, they got them to ride one of our favorite rides, the train. Those of us in our crew were a little nervous, so we sent veteran train rider Sullivan Tighe (red shirt and wearing his ultra cool train shades) to supervise. Everyone boarded the train and they were off for a couple rounds until... it stopped en route.



What seemed to be a need for more gas... turned out to be that the train was just being a little fussy. Reports from the scene that we have gathered say that it is believed that this train has been used at every Watermelon Day since the beginning. Joe who was getting nervous told reporters later, " I kept thinking, jeez, my first ride and I break the thing." Above in the circle, Joe helps to push from the back. The train fired up and the returned back on its route.



All is well, as Joe and Kathryn were all smiles. Our expert rider, Sullivan, helped keep them calm throught the crisis... it's gotta be the shades.
