Walking Ties, 3/11, 2026

  This is my March 11 post; not sure what editing error I made to land it on 3-12.  A’s serious accident occurred about 1:30 3-12 though I didn’t know about it until nearly 4pm.  Probably that had etwas to do with it  

An alternative 

To the foot bridge

The whole structure. Today 3-11-26 10:10 am

     I walked ties across the Tug River as a child with Aunt B and Uncle B. It was scary. This pic shows the spaces between them, and one can easily trip. No footbridge in Nolan. Trains could—and did once—pass us. We had to quickly step off onto small platforms with rails to hold. The train was right there. Like I said, scary. I never forgot. 

  Lord, we build protections for ourselves and trust them to work for us. Let us place our trust completely in you instead.   I pray for special blessing on CV today and each day she continues on the narrow track of her acute illness.  IJN
