Stopped By A Train

 The dogs and I were stopped by a train the other night.

 This crossing doesn't have arms or a light, just the train whistle to warn you.

 So, I thought I would take advantage of the view while we waited.

And, as an added bonus, a couple of birds and a sunset or two.

Bromo-Seltzer and Birds

No, I did not feed Bromo-Seltzer to birds. 
I found a bottle floating in the river one day last summer while I was paddling the canoe.  Earlier this year, we cleaned the basement of the old house and found a crate labeled for Bromo-Seltzer.

And, while waiting one night for my fox family to emerge, I was entertained by these gorgeous yellow birds.
