Sweet Successes

When Sandy’ employer required a business trip to Syracuse, New York, we took the opportunity to make it a working family vacation. Anybody who has traveled with active toddlers knows how challenging it can be. They require constant entertainment and frequent opportunities to work off excess energy. Knowing this, we attempted to use modern technology to design a fun adventure. Seeing this trip as an opportunity, I endeavored to search the internet for cabooses located along our vacation travel route. There is no comprehensive list or national caboose trail. Finding new cabooses and playgrounds requires a great deal of searching, often town by town. Before the Internet, this would have been nearly an impossible task, but now it’s only time consuming. Still, the sweetest successes are those that are difficultly won.
