and watched the regular trains go by. good spot to see all the curves you don't realize are there. LOL

a man and woman walked by where we were spread out and chatted with us for a few minutes, turns out she lived in the section gang town (or whatever the term I could never find is) when she was a young girl! that was kind of exciting. she remembered it being there until the early 60s, I had in my brain it was long gone by then. my Mother remembered going down there as a kid with my Grandpa for some reason and playing with the kids. don't think it was this woman, though. anyway I have known about a well there where we were sitting, but she said there was an ice house too! that was new to me.
