Trains and Plains

I just got back from taking my son to Knox College in Galesburg, Illinois. During the eastbound train trip, I saw one of the most beautiful sunrises of my life: mist rising from the Nebraska plains into a rose-hued sky. Spectacular! Riding the rails through the heartland simply fueled my desire to run it. ...Beautiful country, dotted with small towns, cows, corn, tractors, hawks, silos, windmills, more corn ;-)
I can't wait!
