Three years ago, Don and I sat outside an old Harvey House Hotel in Winslow, Arizona. We watched the evening train arrive as the sun was setting. The image couldn't have been more perfect. What I love about trains: The distant sound of a train whistle at night, feeling that rhythmic sway & rumble that can put me in a trance, riding a train and letting the window entertain like a movie screen, the curious history of trains, the many, many songs about trains... and I even like being stopped by a train, when I am forced to slow down and enjoy the show of train cars!

How about hopping that box car train in Ann Arbor back in 76?

I would so love to claim that memory Jennifer... but you did that one without me. I've had some failed attempts at train hopping in St. Louis. Then again if you can convince me I was really there...
