On the birthday of Joshua (see the special marshmallow cake), Li-Fang and Megan tried out the MARC train for the first time from the station by our house. I drove and met them in Harpers Ferry. We had the opportunity to walk around the park and learn a lot about John Brown. We patronized the gift shop and even walked across a foot bridge to the C&O Canal lock. Although it was pretty windy, it was a worthwhile trip.
