The Train Robbery

When they said the train would leave at three thirty they were not kidding.  I was watching the time on my phone and when it changed to three thirty the train started moving.  I had heard the conductor tell the people on the East side of the train to look for the Bobcats because they aren't normally in this area,  I couldn't see them from our side.  The train had turned around so they were on our side now.  He said the same thing on the way back and there they were, I was kind of expecting animals but it was two Bobcat loaders.
He had told us about the fire they had recently, this is how it looks were it went through.
This is how it should look, under brush and no darkened tree trunks.
Our entertainment on the way back was a guitar player, he was much better than the fiddle player.
The train robbery took place a little later, the train stopped and they came onboard.
The first robber came through telling everyone to stay calm and things would be fine.
The other two robbers came through collecting what ever money the first one missed.
The marshal came through next wanting to know which way they went and how many there were.  One guy answered two and a half which cracked up the marshal.  We got back to Williams a little before six, we debated going into town for dinner but finally decided to make it in the motor home.  It was a fun relaxing day, the Grand Canyon is awesome!
