Saint James

This past Saturday we went to Saint James Railroad Days.  They had some special happenings and also a parade that our friends Julia and Alex were in.  They are in the marching band at Fairmont High School, and they did a great job!  But we went a little early and checked out the town since we hadn't been there before and although we missed the flea market and the shops weren't open and looked all over for root beer floats that were advertised and still didn't find them (whew), it was still a fun time.  The parade was good, and we got lots of candy.  Mmm tootsie rolls!  The train museum and Saint James museum were both open.  Jack said, "Museum? Those are my favorite buildings!"  I think he's only been to the Fairmont Pioneer Museum once with his buddy Noah, but they had a great time so he was excited to check these out.  And then there were bouncy houses and an old fire truck that we were able to ride around town.  AND we had strawberries and cream and mini donuts. So there you go!  We will have to go back sometime and try out Schmidt's Bakery and see what the Country Collage has to offer.  Here are pictures.
