I know the posts are out of sync in the last couple of days with my very busy schedule recently but here is the post for today. I went to York Durham Railway and this is the first time I have been there in 3 years as 3 years ago I filmed with Larry up there for the what was the series finale and also I took a trip on it with my dad that summer as well so it was definitely time to hop back on the train, even if it is partially down the line to Goodwood and back which is what we did. I am not going to talk about the difficult time we had getting tickets as things all worked out in the end but I am so happy they are getting more and more popular to this day and I'm sure when I filmed up there it helped them as well. Anyways we went to Goodwood and back and we were on Car # 101 which is a Budd car from Boise Idaho which yes is the potato state in the U.S. Anyways we were pushed and pulled by diesel 22 which ran in the province of Quebec. So we went on our way and now we were like in the dining car where it had a table and chairs so it was comfortable for me at least but it was nice but I perfect the other type of car but those were the only seats really available at the time of our purchase of tickets.
This is not much of a post of the day as I did take several pics which you can definitely find on my Instagram account @ChrisBOnTheWeb. Anyways we had a good time yesterday and we know in the very nearby future we need to book ahead of time to do the entire trip to Stouville and back as we very much do enjoy that trip in the past and we will be back next year for sure! We will be making sure of that! Also we got a look at the Diesel up close and I wish I said I'd like to go into all 3 of the diesels when we filmed which I can say I have been in all 3 but least I got to be in 3612 at least. So may as well mention this to you guys as well this weekend my dad and I are off to Halton County Radial Museum and the following weekend we are heading to South Simcoe Railway so we will be indeed busy for the next few weekends with new posts. Again thank you so much for reading this short post and I hope you guys enjoyed this little post about my trip and I know it wasn't much but least I got a post out for you guys tonight due to me being extremely busy all day with Larry.

Originally I was suppose to be going to the movies but due to the weather and not feeling safe with it thunder and lighting yesterday, both Eric and I stayed in town but pretty much made the best out of it and hung at the mall which was technically fine with me plus he had some issues with his walking which was more of my concern. Now he gave me this idea for today's post which is South St. Burger here in my hometown at the local mall. Now I was nervous at the start to know how this is going to taste, whether it was under cooked or overcooked but no, it was non of those actually. Now I had the Aussie Burger which yes Aussie as a burger from Australia. So on this burger there was egg, yes egg which was a little overcooked as it was brown by that could of been from the butter. Anyways bacon was nice and crispy. Burger was nice and juicy and cooked up medium as I always like it. Not Raaaw as Chef Ramsey would say. Soft bun action as usual which I always like to have and I think they toasted the bun and I actually like it a bit toasted actually! Now the service was great, they took my order they got my soft drink very quickly on the tray. It only took a few minutes as they cooked the burger fresh so that is probably the burger was nice and tender when I bit into it. Now fair warning it was a bit greasy but still very good burger and ate every single bite. The Price was around $13.66 which is so close to 14 bucks, so fair warning it was a bit on the pricey side of things but still worth it in the end.
Now the rating on South St. Burger is definitely 5 out of 5 all day long. It is worth it like I said and the wait time is worth it as well. I will indeed be back and plan on doing another review down the road and something different down the road that will be determined maybe next month. Anyways I do have some plans for other reviews such as the Rib Fest I was thinking about attending and also in the fall I do plan on doing Popeyes etc but that will be decided later and I will do a list blog eventually. Anyways I enjoyed the meal and it is well worth the small wait and the money and I will be back, I will definitely recommend it to friends and family. I will go the entire 9 yards. I think the fact they staff there overheard me say "food review" they ensured my experience was really good and trust me it was really well worth it and I was nowhere near disappointed, I was highly excited on every last bite of the burger. I honestly did not think egg on a burger would go together but it did. I just wanted to go back for another bite right to the end. I am not overly a picky person and open to new things and this burger, was inspired to try from Eric as he had that about a month or so ago so that is the reason I wanted to try it.

First of all this is my 70th Blog Post, cannot believe it has been this many blog posts already and time has flown by very very fast and I am only 30 posts away from 100 and trust me it will be a special one indeed. I cannot believe I keep on writing these blogs for you guys and I am sure you guys are enjoying my blog posts each and everyone that comes out on a almost regular basis. Trying to keep on a daily basis, however at the most it is every second day at the most if worse comes to worse.
Anyways the main focus of this blog post is the Tyrone Parade of Lights up in Tyrone. Obviously I went with my dad and my 5 year old niece and nephew and was neat in a way to share this experience with them and what I do as a blogger, going to local events and taking pictures and writing a blog post about it. This is what I enjoy on top of the podcasts I do on the website. So we arrived we got cookies and hot chocolate for the kids, always for the kids as Dan Gheesling says on his playthroughs. I didn't indulge due to me still on my diet and I am on my diet till i lose the weight I want. So the wait started, I was cuddling with my niece which before we went, she was being dramatic, typical 5 year old... yes... I played around with her we were playing around with the snow that was on the ground and what not. We then eventually moved down the road a bit and it began. I recognized the first tractor, the white one with the stars sticking out so we knew that was always in the first or second tractor. Some tractors or truck in the farming community we didn't recognize so was nice to see some new entries as well as entries from past parades. In conclusion the parade was once again amazing and loved every moment of it. Below is a few pics.
Have a great night everyone!
