Southern 2-8-0 #610 at Rock Spring , Georgia ( Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum ..)

Heber City , Utah . Union Pacific 2-8-0 #618 and a 1953 Buick Super. This has to be the classic of classic photos! It defies time itself. When I saw this photo, I was transported back to those wonderful days when life was full of simple pleasures, back when we were satisfied with less and happy to walk instead of ride. This is February 6, 2007 when time and eternity intersect at this crossing. And to think that you and I, and others, once had a stage like this everyday for the greatest performance ever. Oh what the generation of today has missed. Great Memories!

CARS WE WILL NEVER SEE AGAIN

1958 Lincoln Premiere

1955 Nash Rambler Cross Country Wagon

1958 Edsel Convertible

One would sit on the porch and name the cars as they drove by. . .unlike today . .. When they all look the same.

This is when a car was a car.....

A Fishy Story

Thanks to Peter D.

A guy who lives at Lake Conroe

(50 miles north of Houston ) saw a ball bouncing

around kind of strange in the lake and went to

investigate.

It turned out to be a flathead catfish that had

apparently tried to swallow a basketball which

became stuck in its mouth!!

The fish was totally exhausted from trying to

dive, but unable to, because the ball would

always bring him back up to the surface.

The guy tried numerous times to get the ball out,

but was unsuccessful. He finally had his wife cut

the ball in order to deflate it and release the hungry

catfish.

You probably wouldn't have believed this,

if you hadn't seen the following pictures:

Be kinder than necessary

because everyone bites off

more than they can chew

sometime in life...

See You Next Week
