ooh train song




i saw these photos and they made my heart sing. Soar really.

wouldn't it be so wonderful to go on a long sleeping-car ride, with long stops in the day to ramble through towns and woods and wilds....oh yes.

A long train ride sounds perfect right now. I'd like to board at night, have a cup of apple cider, read a little, and then fall asleep until peeking through the little train windows at the sun coming up. Your good idea has made me very happy!

this is mandas speaking:
i am not remembering who sings the Train Song, but I thinks of that amazing line from Fernando Ortega: "there's a slow train moving through the desert..." oh beauty in the world, and that train picture is glorious.

oh hello there sweet people. wow amazing to see
emily and amanda comments together. your friendship is such cranberry and gold...mmm. you two would be really fun to go on this train ride with, and fernando worship would indeed be playing in our spirits. and maybe Josh Garrels too, of the train song reference. we may not be able to remember whose name goes with tiddlywinks but we at least gots musician name today :).

all aboard! let's get our satchels rumpled with wear and our hair is in curls and braids and pins...(i think i have some anne of green gables currents going here :)...
