Rail walk ....




       What a winter !!!    Took the opportunity to get away last week for a few
hours and spend a little one on one time with Mother Nature.  What better place
than an old abandoned railroad.  I very easily could have just kept walking into
the sunset.  What an outstanding place to simply walk and think.  There is nothing 
exciting to see in that old creek bottom but it's a good place to let your mind run free
for a while and think about how life used to be.   I kept thinking a train might
come along at any minute and I was ready to jump aboard.  I did take a few pictures
along the way.  Nothing out of the ordinary. only special in my own twisted little
mind.  Even added some lyrics from some old train songs I sang to myself along the
way.  And yes.. I made sure nobody was around to hear although one wild rabbit did
kinda give me a strange look as he hopped away.


Go to sleep you weary Hobo... Let the towns drift slowly by...
Can't you hear the steel rails humming'.. That's a Hobo's lullaby.....
I always said "I'll cross that bridge when I come to it " 
It's time !


I'd have to say that tree has been knotty !










I don't mind not knowing what lies down the track....
Cause i'm lookin' straight ahead to keep my mind from  turnin' back ...
A.K.

Been a little while for these old rails.....
I inserted this picture of an old switch to see if anyone knows why
my camera does this.   Just randomly goes away !!! 
Rare... what does those letters U.S. A. mean... seldom seen any more  :-((
