It makes me want to take a back road.


This morning I was running late for work. 
I grabbed my bike & ran out the door, only to discover
I had a flat tire. Another flat tire. 
I grumbled a bit and then hopped in my car before I was too late. 

As I reached the intersection just before I would reach work on time, 
I realized that I was stopped.
But the light was green. 
In Fort Collins, this only means one thing:
the train. 
 I turned off my car & sat, took a deep breath
and this song  started to play. 
All I could think about was how I am 
thankful that I live in one of the few towns that has train tracks 
running right through it. 

It forces me to stop. And just be. I needed that.
