When you live near the railroad you never know what passes through your town. Today at lunch when leaving the office I looked up at the rail road and these huge propellers were on the train tracks. I did a little investigation and found that they were on their way to North Dakota. They are windmill blades for an electricity farm.
The future of electricity I assume.
With as many trains that come through Henderson (sometimes 50 per day) I’m glad to know that it was something that is good for our environment. Many times I think that the tanker cars on the trains carry very dangerous chemicals. Living as close as I do to the tracks I am always ready for a quick evacuation.

You must get used to hearing all the trains. Whenever I take Jonas to Sunset Park, there are always so many trains! One every half hour?

Yes, sometimes they can be quite noisy, but you get used to it.
