Hey Guys, so I took off early Sunday morning, and took a trip with my dad.
(I will be uploading pictures of the trip in this blog later today.
)
We went to Valley Forge (I'm a total history nut), and then after that we got a motel-- slept, and went to Straussburg Railroad, where actual steam engines run, and you can ride on them. I had an excellent time, but as we were about to leave, I had a "Half-Real" encounter with my Bones.

[center]A Half-Real Encounter
The light rain sprinkled down on me.
To my right, she came through the mist.
Burning steel, and hissing breath of the engine shook the ground before me.
Her cane at her side, and her layers of black clothing melted out of the fog.
A small group of children was to my left. They were tucked under the cautious wings of their parents.
Careful not to let their little ones get to close to the burning, hissing beast.
As she came closer, I could see a smile form.. Her white hair combed perfectly away from her pale face.
“Ready to go?” My father asked me, and I smiled up at him. “Alright,” I said.
“Hey hun...” Her casual swagger made its way to me. “Takin' off?” She flashed her silver tooth with a smirk.
Suddenly something on the tracks caught his eye and he turned. “What is it?” I ask.
