It gets even worse when the train spotters organize[^] themselves.

I know a man who displays a train set every year for the holidays; he's kind of a local landmark. He spends most of the year building it.

I've got an N Gauge set, but I'm don't play with it because the girls keep trying to take the stock off the track as it goes by.

Oh dear. One of my co-workers is a train "hobbyist". He is currently buying rediculously expensive 2nd hand collector stuff off ebay, etc. and gets them delivered to work so his wife knows nothing about them. He then sneaks them home in the dark to his man-cave, or as I call it his train shed.

Train sets are how you get men to clear an upstairs room or attic.
I only had a small (it's about 4' by 3') N-gauge layout. My dad mostly enjoyed building it rather than playing with it, along with making 'authentic' changes to the bought engines and trucks like painting smoke smears and other in-usage dirt on them.
I also enjoyed loading the quarry trucks up with actual gravel and seeing if the engine could pull them up the hill.

Hearing the same old bull again is also known as Deja Moo.

I wouldn't know. I only pass wind twice a month: once near the beginning of a lunar cycle, and once near the end.
No, my wife doesn't believe that either...

Well I made it to Phoenix by way of carlsbad Cavern and Saguaro National park and left this morning and went to Grand canyon south rim then Monument valley. Tomorrow going to get some morning shots of Monument Valley then on to Utah's Arches National park. It's turning out to be a very active trip so far.

Break an axle.
If you drive from Monument Valley through Mexican Hat, and up to Natural Bridges you get to drive up a wonderfull stretch of road[^]. (I drove down it.)
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

I forgot about that one. I drove down it as well. Isn't Goosenecks State Park[^] right off of that stretch of road?

Awesome! Make sure you explore the areas outside of Arches NP as well. A bit of driving on SR128[^], which follows the Colorado River just South of Arches, is well worth the time and offers lots of opportunities for taking pictures.

Cool! You're making good time, I see! I recommend Bryce Canyon and Zion National Park while you're in the neighborhood. But one I discovered about 25 years ago is less well known, and fascinating - Anasazi State Park[^], which was called Anasazi Village when I saw it back then. It's a little off the beaten trail, but well worth the detour. It's a 10,000 year old settlement that they have been reconstructing layer by layer for decades. No one knows where these people went, or why. But my best guess is that climate changes split them into different groups which roamed the Southwest and later became the Navajo, Hopi, Zuni, Yaqui, and Mayan tribes. One of the coolest things I discovered there was that they had found some beans preserved in a kiva, planted them and got a real crop! Now the park sells Anasazi beans by the pound to anyone who wants to taste what ancient peoples considered a staple food.
