What Better Hobby?

 

Sometimes it is accident that causes

a person to pick a hobby, and

sometimes it is fate.

In my case, I would guess that

it was fate.

 

Riding on the railroad it was an

inspiration. 

 

I had great admiration for the

people who built the roailroad

and finished it just fifty years

ago.

 

Also, for the people who operate

it today, I have great admiration.

 

It is no small accomplishment to

run such a large business, and

to care for so many huge machines.

 

Perhaps that is it– the enormity of

the whole endeavor.  It is, you might

say, as big as Canada.
