We went to See Rock City

 Have you ever seen one of those barns that has "See Rock City" painted on the roof? Or maybe one of those many birdhouses, painted in red and black, with the same words? Well, we decided to take a road trip to Lookout Mountain just outside Chattanooga, Tennessee to "see" for ourselves what all the advertising was about.

A visit to the Tennessee Valley Railfest

We piled into the car to make a road trip to the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum, located in Chattanooga, Tennessee, for the Tennessee Valley Railfest. Our main interest was to ride their steam locomotives. TVRM would be running Southern Railway 4501 (2-8-2 Mikado) and Southern Railway 630 (2-8-0 Consolidation) during the weekend event.
