MIA...

 I have been staring at the computer...what should I share?

Chuck and I were in a terrible car accident.

Chuck was driving, the accident was not his fault, but here we are anyway.

I was in the hospital for 4 days, my left wrist is broken in 2 places, I have 2 broken ribs,

and I am so grateful that Chuck was not hurt.

I will spare you all the nitty - gritty details...I am so happy to be home and doing well.

"Purple" Debbie has taken on a whole new meaning.

I am not sure of the future of this blog, I am taking things one day at a time.

And if you had any doubt the color of my cast...

here it is, Purple!!!

Pine Creek Railroad

 For most of my adult life, I have had a "crush" on trains.

We are so lucky to have the Pine Creek Railroad in Allaire State Park only a stone's throw from home.

Founded in 1952, 

The New Jersey Museum of Transportation's Pine Creek Railroad 

is one of the oldest, 3 foot narrow gauge railway exhibit's in the country.

Here are some pictures of the Pine Creek Railroad taken in early September when we visited.

A spare motor for maybe a submarine...never used,

there was an interesting story attached to this but neither the hubs nor I can remember the story.

This old timer told us the story, it was so interesting, I wish I could remember it.

He had a wealth of information about everything...

it was a great conversation!

From home, I can hear the train in Point Pleasant arrive at the station and sound its whistle.

This sound always brings me much comfort as I think of the people who are coming home from work 

to their loved ones, or those who are arriving here for vacation.

I love where I live!
