Nightfall on Schenectady
The New Journey is of Faces from either side of the tracks. I’m starting with a poem and a non people photo although all my photos are of people. Look hard there is humanity here.
The journey is long
With many bends
Looking forward you’re
Not able to see
What comes next
Looking back
Each day the
Past has changed
Perception is reality
I know that for a fact
Each time you look back
Everything is different
Yet nothing has changed.

All the way across America and Amtrak arrives on time. Seattle was hoping despite the empty tables, it was 3pm who eats at that hour lol. On this deck overlooking Puget Sound we ate seafood and relaxed The western leg of my travel adventure over. Stay tuned for Olympia and the eastern ride back across the country. Different route and faces most smiling. enjoy pjc

One of the many small reminders of the past rail travel and how it brought us to where we are today. Perhaps a reminder of a more civil time where sharing was more important than your own little i-podion world? Public transportation what a concept. enjoy pjc

It isn’t so much the Iron Horse that makes train travel such an adventure. It is the people who chat and bond as you wiz across this beautiful country. The cafe car a cold soda with this young women on her way to Evergreen College in Olympia Wa. where I was also headed to see my daughter. We talked of the future and the past.
