Eva and Bina,

Thank ya! Glad you enjoyed 'em. And, Eva ... that's what it is about ... a new destination!


Doug,

Oh how cool! Hope you are able to join us for gatherings in 2011 ... would be great to meet you!!! I know exactly where Sugar Grove is, as I pass through there every so often.

As for the Barstow pic ... I took that while I was on my Route 66 trip, September 2009.

Nice pic's Cort, but where's the train?

Thanks, Freddie!

Not sure ... I wanted to have the tracks without the trains this time around. Maybe I'll grab some pics of RR tracks WITH trains ... just for you ;). lol
