Awww! What a bummer, Tambre! It's a picture of the railroad tracks going across the highway. I couldn't believe it when I first saw it and had to take a picture of it. I wonder why it doesn't show for right now. When I first read your response, the picture was here but when I refreshed the page, it disappeared!!! It must be a problem with the site I used. I've moved it to another site so here it is:



Can you see it now???

Hi Mrs. G.,

Now I can see it...what a great picture...that's unreal... a train track crossing the highway, that's definitely going to complicate the commute. Is that on Highway 60 headed out of Springfield? Funny, the realtor never mentioned that as an interesting tidbit about commuting into Springfield....so how much of an issue is it?

Geez, Louise, Gotta make sure I use the uh, ladies facilities, before leaving for work, some of those trains are endless, lol. (Ok, which one of you has an emoticon for that....lol).

Thanks for the photo Mrs. G. and for posting it a second time.

Tambre

Thanks, Tambre! http://mediaphoto.doctissimo.fr/dossiers/t/a/tartalacreme/grands-smileys/TN-4803-photographe.gif (broken link) I'm kinda proud of it.

Well, I'm afraid I can't help you on knowing how it affects the commute.
I don't know what time any trains go through...never even hear anyone talk about it.
It is heading east out of Springfield, just as you thought, though.

How's this for an emoticon...for that?

Thanks, Autumngal!

Ha! I'm remembering how hard it was to get...do you have any idea how hard it is to keep your windshield clean in this state??? Hahaha! Not to mention how hard it is to take a picture that isn't blurry while driving at that speed? Whew! I took a lot of pictures over a period of time before I got one I was relatively happy with. It's nice to be able to share it with others and have it appreciated.

That is what I am thinking. You timed it perfectly! And such a straight angle. I have to say again it is a fantastic photo. Much appreciated especially knowing what ya had to do to get it.

And it is really wild with the tracks there. Of all places..there.

Those are hysterical! I can't believe you have an emoticon for "sitting down and doing the paperwork". The train one is cute, too. You're the best, you've made my day!
