OK, so there's no picture of the train ... just the hot trail of fire it left in it's wake. It must have had a hung up break or something. The sparks from it left our Fire and Rescue folks busy today. That was actually the 4th brush fire of the day. Two of them were caused by idiots throwing cigarettes out the window :mad: Yes, it IS that dry here.

Its rained at my house for the better part of 2 weeks... not a lot of rain, but a little each day.

looks like another line is going to be moving thru in a day or so. that line from Del Rio to the Kansas border.

Where is the freaking train? I didn't see anything!

Was this a ghost train? More importantly what the heck were you doing there Hey?

Oh let me guess, bringing lunch to your hubby? lol

The train had already been by. It left a trail of sparks that set several small grass fires and the two larger brush fires.

We were actually heading into town when John got paged to join the fun on his day off. So I hung out at the staging area passing out bottled water to the guys while he manned one of the tankers. A few of the other wives do volunteer work like that also.

Yes, I carry my camera with me at all times :)
