Thomas the Tank Engine

A couple of weeks ago, Rusk Park (formerly known as Rusk State Park), had a special event: Thomas the Tank Engine was there. I decided it would be a good time to check out some of the changes that had been made at the park since it had been sold. I picked up Roarin' Lion and headed out to see what was going on at the park. The people were very friendly and helpful. but I found it kinda sad that this was no longer a state park. It was the site of the first gathering that I attended hosted by Silver Eagle and Baby Bear and somehow it just wasn't the same. Lucy Locket and I had been there a couple of weeks before that and checked on my "Crush" box which needed a new logbook. I hope they keep the trails open. Roarin' Lion had a good time, and was thrilled to see Thomas. I will say, the attraction brought a LOT of people to see the train and take a ride. Hopefully, our boxes will be safe for a while longer.



When we left The park , we headed over to Hogg Pek to pick up a box by Boots Tex titled "Native-Born:Texas Governor Series". We had fun finding the box and exploreing the creek while we were there.
