 This past weekend I attended Train Days at Union Depot. This is a fun family event held annually at this historical downtown St. Paul train station.  It is a chance for train lovers of all ages to view walk through the beautifully renovated Union Depot and see vintage train engines and even stroll through restored dining and passenger cars of yesteryear.  There was an outdoor kid play area with food trucks and indoor events included model train displays, art activities, vendors and abundant photo ops. One of the events was the opportunity to tour the Metro Transit Light Rail’s Green Line Operations and Maintenance facility. It is astounding to realize there are 46 trains that make up the Green Line along with an additional 46 trains being maintained at a similar facility on the far wes...

 Juvenile delinquents were kids who committed crimes like theft, robbery, assault and battery, they were not really kids who ranaway from home. But in 1967, kids were treated like hardened criminals if they left home without permission.  That's why I would not call myself a juvenile delinquent. Well, maybe I broke a few laws. You can read more in my personal blog today at this link: The Runaway Kids 50 Years Later from the Home of the Good Shepherd.

The St Paul Winter Carnival is great family event and there is still time to catch some of the activities. This is a great yearly event and I have to sadly say I just haven't taken the time to attend any of the events the last few years. What was I thinking? There is so much to do and it is just nice to get out in the fresh air and stop hibernating.  Last weekend we visited Rice Park to see the ice sculptures, watch the pony rides, eat some junk food and take photos with the Charles Schultz characters. So fun.   This weekend we are going to the St Paul State Fairgrounds to see the snow sculptures. I can't wait! These are incredible works of art and seeing photos I know won't do them justice.    There are still a lot of activities to attend at the St Paul Winter Carnival before it is ove...
