Don’t forget to listen to the repetitive “clickety-clack clickety-clack clickety-clack clickety-clack clickety-clack clickety-clack” wheel sounds:
Excerpt from The Train –
To Brampton, Brantford or old Moosenee
Timing is critical for you and for me
Meetings with bankers, lawyers and such
Or just meeting friends and staying in touch
***
I again must slow down. A station is near
And there I will stop ‘til my passengers clear
Their journey is done. They look out my windows
Dream of their plans, get up and continue
***
They open the doors and step down to the ground
Where is their someone? They all look around
And then their eyes meet, they wave from afar
Run up and hug, before leaving by car
***
But I will stay here… for that is my task
And I love it… in case you were going to ask
Taking people to places, and riding the rails
I am living a life of adventures and tales!
Looks like a flat Midwestern landscape… I’ll guess Indiana. On the way to Chicago maybe? That brings back memories of changing trains in Chicago with my family when I was little. 🙂
The food is grrrreat!! I was upset tonight because I was just too full for dessert and their dessert is so yummy. Dark chocolate torte! Had the best salmon! My husband and kids love the banana nut muffins and the blueberry ones.
Cool about your trip to the mountains 🙂 You are right at how it invigorates you.
Soaking it in!
You are enjoying the rhythm of the rails, and seeing places that you’ve never seen before! 🙂

I knew a train, but not much else. I have no idea if we’re in the same country or even the same continent! Blessed travels, for sure :).
