North & South on the Heber Creeper

When you think of The Heber Creeper, you might think, Weekend Out With Thomas the Train, or the Polar Express event, or the murder mystery dinner events. I don't. I think of North & South, the ending romantic, kissing scene. My boyfriend obviously didn't know this when he took me on a romanitc date this weekend, for a train ride on The Heber Creeper. Here was what was running through my head:



It actually was a really fun date. We rode the train approx. 40 minutes each way, listened to music, they had a magician on the train, viewed the beautiful snow-covered Utah mountains, and of course cuddled up. The train is from the 1930's and has not been restored - it's really a fun outing. You feel like you literally are back in time.


Maybe they should market a North & South train event for the ladies of Utah who love good period-dramas. Or maybe not. Maybe you should just tell your man you have a really good idea for a date, or have your man talk to my man.

So when we rode the heber creeper it was nothing like that. It was in the summer time and we were on a train car without windows and just hard seats. We also had our kids with us along with the extended family. it was a family reunion. We might need to try it again.

How fun! I love the ending on North and South too - much better than the ending of Wives and Daughters where Molly and Roger are walking side by side in Africa and not even holding hands :)!!! Glad you had a fun, romantic date!
