March 24, 2011...Chuggington

After traveling through Illinois, Wisconsin, and Minnesota yesterday/last night, we awoke this morning in North Dakota and while it was FLAT as could be, the sunrise sure was gorgeous.  


The rest of our travels today took us through the great state of Montana, and ended with a short stint through Idaho.  I was impressed with how far one could see across the lands and particularly loved the icy trees of North Dakota.  


They are covered from top to bottom in the blowing snow over night and just sparkle with ice/snow in the morning.  As the sun rises, the snow melts off and the wonder is lost.  It was gorgeous!  


The kids did great and got to explore the train a little, heading down to the dining car for breakfast/lunch/dinner and staring out the window at the amazing sights whipping by.
