Went on another lovely trip on the Skunk Train this Saturday. It’s always a pleasure to see life at a little slower pace. And to hear the tracks clicking g and the whistle blowing...☺️

We did the rail bikes 10-7-20. It was pleasant smooth beautiful ride overall, really nice guides. The best part was the walk in the woods at the half way point. I feel the price is a little high for repeat business, sadly. If it was priced at $150, I can see doing this several times. $250 or even $195, is to high for me to tell people to go & for me to do again and again. It was nice to do once.

The scenery was beautiful, the amount of time is perfect. You get time to walk a trail and take pictures. Is not difficult if you have disabilities or if you haven't worked out in a while. I have nerve damage to my foot. This was amazing. To be able to do an activity on vacation and admire the beautiful scenery. I'm coming back
