Beautiful pictures Pat. Thanks. Lynnie save me a seat. I'll be running along the train to catch it.When I was 18 my boyfriend and I hitched a ride on a train as it was leaving the station. We had to run along side of it and jump and grab onto a bar and pull ourselves up into a box car. scarey. Once on the train it was a lot of fun. We talked to a couple hobo's. We rode from san Francisco down south to los angels then had to catch another train back. It was a fun experience at the time when I was young and a daredevil. Have a warm and safe day.
