Day 194
A few days ago, the wind blew a train off the track just a bit down yonder.
They're back up and running like mad now!

Hope no one was hurt.
My husband would go crazy if we had trains running on the edge of our property. He loves watching them.

Nope, nobody hurt. Not even a scratch.
I was driving home from work, listening to the storm's play by play reporting on the radio. You know how they like to talk in circles, as there's really nothing to talk about. "Hey! There's a storm coming!" That would be my report. Anyway, all within 20 seconds they say, "A train got blown off the tracks 20 miles east of Bryan.. blah blah blah That's 20 miles west of Bryan.. blah blah blah That's 3 miles west of Bryan."
Wait... What??
20 miles east of Bryan is my back field.
20 miles west of Bryan is my sister-in-law's town.
Who knows what's 3 miles west of Bryan.
Waited a couple minutes to see if they were going to talk about it again... Nope.
Finally called my daughter, told her to look out back and see if there's a train that fell off the track. Some of these trains carry some really nasty cargo! Turns out it was 3 miles west of Bryan. Nothing out there. It didn't even block any roads.
I have seriously considered putting a webcam out there and charging a monthly fee to watch it. I know there's a ton of people that love to watch trains!
maybe you should have let it age another day! Lol

I was going to use this for today's photo, but then I realized it was only 11:58, not 12:58 like I thought it was. So, I'll do something else when I wake up.
Out practicing some long exposures tonight.
Went out to get the Milky Way Cluster, but alas, it's over to the right and burned out by the light pollution from the thriving metropolis of Wauseon.
So here's some stars instead.
