a train ride and reminiscence

last week, thursday couldn't have come any sooner! i was so relieved
to have the business portion of my travels over and done with!
wednesday night was filled with excitement as it was the beginning of
my new england adventure! i am pretty stocked with the way my pictures came out too :D
there is something so magical about being on a
train... like a long forgotten way of travel that slows time and 
creates a world of wonder. the scenery from my seat inside the train
was one that was filled with mystic and breath taking views with low
fog creeping into the wetlands of the new england coastline...i
couldn't help but wonder what it would feel like to live here...


the slated houses worn over time  provide a simpler time where life is
slow and sweet....having been raised in the california country with a
very small farm there is always a part of me that wishes to go back to
that...i am torn...there is something so wonderful about being in the
country where the air is quiet and nature surrounds your entire
senses...ever since i was little i yearned to live in the city. our
weekend visits to my grandparents house evoked a need that the country
couldn't fulfill but now as i get older i want to recede back to what
once was...a place in my heart where forgotten train tracks,
eucalyptus forests and sprawling grassy fields were the adventures of my childhood...

  
what are some of your childhood memories?
