Another Thing I Can Cross Off...

...my "well, I never thought" list.

This morning when I was already running a smidge late, I saw something I didn't want to see as I came out of the curve along bamboo road: the red lights indicating the guard rails were down over the train tracks. Well, as I slowed down to see what was happening the car in front of me crossed.

Turns out the guard rails were down, but seriously out of whack. This is the same crossing that several months back the rails were down but no train for ages (they don't even run at this hour of the morning) but since they were down I couldn't cross so I had to go the wrong way down a one way to get back on the main road....remember?

So after making sure that no train was coming down the track I too crossed between the rails that were running somewhere in between parallel and perpendicular to the road. My guess is a car went plowing through them in the night...unless some of these CAT4 winds messed them up. No lo so. Some things just can't be fully processed that early in the morning, before several shots of espresso.

All I know is I may just head that way tomorrow morning on my way to work to see if I can't get a picture, however with my luck they've already been repaired.
