Tuesday Treasures

This week my treasure is the Diamond Valley Miniature Railway, as it has played a large role in our family.  There's a great playground, pony rides, parkland and lovely river walks at Eltham Lower Park, where it is located.  It's only about a ten minute drive from home so we took Sam and Jack there quite often when they were small, especially since Sam had a passion for steam trains from when he was a tiny little boy.

As soon as he was old enough he joined the railway, worked on the station, then learned to drive the trains. He is now the vice president. (That's Sam second from the left)
Everyone at the railway has been working really hard for a special event coming up this weekend.  The 3 millionth passenger is due to ride on Sunday and there will be wonderful gifts for this person and a fantastic celebration for everyone.  It is also their annual Steam Gala.
It's a fabulous ride in a beautiful bushland setting and you can get more details HERE. I have so many treasured memories of fun times spent here.
Do you have a special place, person, thing or event you treasure?  Please pop your details into Mr Linky and share it here.  I'm looking forward to seeing your treasure this week.
