Good Morning everyone. It is still dark but without the clock should I wake up, I would know that it is about 5:00 am because I can hear the slow moving train that comes along out there. It whistles a lot for once it is this far into the city it crosses many streets and so makes everyone within hearing distance know that it is there. To me, it is a nice sound, but to some it is a sad lonesome sound. To others it might be a wake-up call that their day has begun so, get up and get moving. It is pulling a long line of cars and will pull into the State street yards before very long. Whether it stops there or continues on to the Morefield yards to switch cars or get some supplies for its self, I don't know any more for in my family, many worked for the railroads, and we all knew a lot more about the going ons of the railroad. The only ones I remember talk about were the B & O, the Baltimore and Ohio and the Pennsylvania. My dad and his brother worked for the B&O and also my DH before we were married, for a short while.

No one is awake here by me and I am usually awake at this time of the day and even the cats feel it is time to sleep. The kitten has grown into a cat by now and I hated to see that sweet have age so fast. The older cat would rather you not bother him. He is asleep on top of my scanner/printer and did awaken long enough to give me a big yawn and a glare and wiggle back down into a big blob of furry lump.
