Crystal Falls

Walter and his cousin-Cale got to go for a long Ranger ride today with Jeff. They went from Crystal Falls to Iron River and back to Crystal a different way. They all had a great time. Here they are at the Brule River on the Wisconsin side, it was just getting dark but we love old train bridges.

If you look behind the boys in the field are dozens of deer.

We stopped at this old museum in Caspian, I think, and wandered around. There was an old train depot, railroad cars, and mining equipment the guys didn't want to leave.
Walter really likes these old mining buildings and Cale was interested in it too, especially since there is an old railroad ore car parked under it.

The restaurant we ate at was an old train station and had these old passenger cars next door. How cool is that? The owner of the place complimented the boys on their good behavior.
The ranger puts kids to sleep.
The views were breath taking and the pictures don't do it justice.

I'm glad you posted these. Looks like the boys had fun! Cale came home exhausted so I'm sure he had an exciting day.

Thanks again for taking him!
