The west side of our farm is bordered by a railroad track and a trestle that takes the train over Sugar Creek. You might think that the rumble of the train is an annoyance, but to me it's comforting.
I love the sound of a train in the distance. It has that sort of sad, but comforting sound to it. I don't think I'd like it to be so close that it goes blaring and shaking my house, though.
When we were first married, we lived in a tiny apt right next to the train tracks in and out of Milwaukee. We'd gotten so used to the sound and shaking we'd only be aware of it when a candle with wiggle off the shelf. (Then we learned to tape them down.)
Farm-fresh meats with an old-fashioned taste. Corn-fed beef, heritage pork, pasture-raised chickens, free-range eggs. All without antibiotics or hormones.
