It was a long 24 hours from Okeechobee to Alexandria, Virginia and I got to see a lot of America's country side along the way. When the train hit North Carolina and started to climb from flat swamp land to deciduous forest, I felt comforted by what's familiar, but right now it's too far a distance from my heart.

Okeechobee
This sad little train station is where I boarded Amtrak to start my trip home. The safety poster reminds me of an IRA mural in Northern Ireland. The surrounding area wasn't as bleak as it looks but I sure wouldn't want to stand here alone at night.

That is a sad little train station. It looks like something out of a spaghetti western.
What a great photo!
I know, Mina!

A 24 hour journey! Wow! Bet it was pretty though! I like the picture. I has so much character.
I's nice to see you are back to blogging, Jennie!
