Well, we'll try. And, if we can't make it, we'll come back and stay at the hotel here all night." They were in the Tarrington station now, where it was nice and warm and light. Outside it was dark and cold and snowing hard. But the children did not mind. "We'll soon be at Grandpa's!" chanted Laddie. "And have some bread and jam!" added Violet. "What's jam made of?" she asked quickly.
Shouldn't be surprised if we ran into a big blizzard before we reached Tarrington." "Oh, I hope not," said Grandpa Ford. "I don't want any big blizzard until I get the six little Bunkers safely home at Great Hedge. Then it can snow as much as it likes." "I hope it snows a lot," said Mun Bun. "I like snow." "So do I, when I'm at home in my warm house," said Grandpa Ford.
"Perhaps the train can't go any farther, and we can't get to Tarrington." "Oh, can't we go to Grandpa's?" asked Rose, looking as if she could not bear to have such a dreadful thing happen. "I want to go!" "If the train can't go we can get out and walk," suggested Russ. "I like to walk in the snow. If I had some lawn tennis rackets I could make snowshoes for all of us, and we could walk on them."
In the afternoon Grandpa Ford hitched a team of horses to a big sled the same one that had brought them from the station and took them all for a long ride, the bells merrily jingling all the way. They stopped in the city of Tarrington on the way home, and bought some things Grandma Ford wanted for the Thanksgiving dinner.
