My mind is racing with what life must be like on that train. My fantasies might be better than the reality, but I hope not. That must have left a smile on your face all day. So nice to see the lushness in your yard!
a circus train .. oh what fun .. before I read Christine's comment above I thought the very same thing .. my mind is racing just imagining what is inside!!
i love your chalk wisdom splayed out on sidewalk. i'd love to climb aboard a circus train, too, but think I'd be too saddened by the animal's lives that have lost their muchness in their servitude. Something awfully cruel about a circus animal's life, it always seemed to me. Even as a kid, I couldn't enjoy the clowns because the captive elephants made me cry. Life on a train, however, seems outrageous and wonderful. Reminds me a little of The Boxcar Children. -Jennifer
I've ridden my bike past that very train in that very spot! It was fun to see again when I'm so far away from Colorado. And I love the sidewalk inspiration too. Fun post!
If you have taken the time to come to windrockstudio and read a post and left a comment please know how very much we appreciate it ... thank you! and please know that I am working on the problem of not being able to respond to each one but haven't solved it yet.
This reminds me of "Water for Elephants"...(the book, haven't seen the movie)
ReplyDeleteHow exciting! Did you know their training grounds are in Sarasota, Florida? They even have a museum which I've been to many times.
