Fall Break in Chattanooga - Day 3

Our last day in Chattanooga included a few final stops before heading home to get the dogs and make Parker's baseball game.  Up first, we took a trip to the International Towing and Recovery Museum.  The hands down highlight of the museum was a tow truck the kids could operate themselves.

The world's first purpose built tow truck
Parker on the world's largest tow truck
There was an American flag so Carter decided we all needed to do the Pledge of Allegiance.

The actual desk where the book "The Complete History of Towing" was written.
Of course Dad wanted a turn
Next we headed to the Tennessee Valley Railroad to take a "real" train ride.  The boys played around on some train cars before we took a short ride and watched a train table in action.

Our last stop was the Chickamauga Battle field to finish the Junior Ranger program Carter started at Point Park. We took a tour of the entire battle field and the museum.  Then it was back to Atlanta!
