Texas Forestry Museum 4/30/2012

Our coach was in the paint shop so we planned a day trip to Lufkin south of here. Peggy & Kent went with us. They also have a Foretravel and we met them here at Camp Foretravel. We got down there early so we walked around the grounds looking at the different logging type equipment they had on display. Of course we had to look at the train and pose inside.

Engine # 3 even had a caboose to look through.

We toured the museum and watched a video about Texas logging.

It was a great little museum. We were on the way to find a Taco Bell for lunch and came across a place called the Lunch Box. We should have known something was not right, no cars in the parking lot. They were mainly a bakery but they did have sandwiches and they were pretty good. Kent bought a couple of the small deserts to sample. They were delicious.
