Today we went to Promontory Point (where East met West). We had so much fun watching the trains. The whistles were both exciting and scary. We stayed to watch them retire for the evening. Samuel loves trains and I think he was the most interested. Of course, Moroni tried to eat the rocks!

Benjamin asked the conductor what happened to the golden spike. Imagine his disappointment when he was told that as soon as the spike was driven in, it was also removed and went home with the gentleman in his pocket and is now displayed at Stanford University in Palo Alto, California.

After Promontory Point, we met Melissa and her kids (Joey, Kelly and Brady) at a park for dinner. The kids really had a lot of fun running with their cousins. So much fun that Melissa even took three of them home for the night.
