But I just kept getting back on. You should do that one day Brian. Every time I hear a train whistle blow I think of home. A few years ago I was at a farmers market and an elderly man had made train whistles out of pieces of blocks. To hear them , well I had to go investigate, I bought one for each of the little boys in our families. They were all so happy to hear the sound, but not as happy as I was to see and hear them play with them.<br /><br />Debra did you eat the cowslips too. I hope you have a great weekend and that you get a chance to play in the sun. I am off for my morning coffee very soon.. take care.<br /><br />Char, thanks, I hope you are well. big hugs to you. take care.Cindy https://www.blogger.com/profile/03552572705763406197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3876843150877300869.post-29625829218113896062010-06-12T07:32:29.998-07:002010-06-12T07:32:29.998-07:00ED, oh that was one of my faves too, the kind of m...ED, oh that was one of my faves too, the kind of movie you can see over and over again.

I also experience that a lot of times.. looking at a place and then there is a flashback of who or what used to be. The photos are wonderful, even the trees without leaves. Perhaps they all have fallen down together with years. But then look at the trunks still there to tell about the lovely tales you had with them. The train track is beautiful, too.. beautiful like the wonderful person balancing herself on it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3876843150877300869.post-28176840323951227992010-06-11T20:41:46.986-07:002010-06-11T20:41:46.986-07:00Such a beautiful post, Cindy...I love your memorie...Such a beautiful post, Cindy...I love your memories...and can almost experience them too!
