Boys Fourth Birthday - Invites

Each family was sent an invitation that included a grimacing image of a railroad baron, a map to the party, and enough train tickets for each child in the family. The image of the man was taken from the website of Sid Meiers Railroads!, which is a really cool train simulation game.

The boys party will be held at the home of a retired IBMer who has spent much of his adult life building a small railroad at his home in northwest Rochester. It includes such things as a hundred foot long tunnel and a trestle bridge. He is my friend Matt Larsen's uncle, and is well known for holding these parties for free. (Though you are encourages to make a donation to the "Coal Fund.") The kids have been to the property once before and loved it.
