The Train…

I was on the phone with Grandma Annabelle tonight and decided to read her my posts.  I wasn’t sure if I should but asked her if she wanted to hear them.  After reading them to her she said she wanted them mailed to her.  These posts really touched her heart.  She wanted me to post something that her and grandpa would talk about every night.  When grandpa was going away to the the Coast Guard, this was before they were married, he would take a train from the Wapato train station over to Seattle.  This train would hoot its horn so loud.  The night that grandpa caught this train grandma was in tears.  When they would go to bed every night, they would talk about that darned train and how sad grandma was when he left.  The picture above is not them but I can just see this is how it would have been.  They loved each other so much!  Awesome memory for her to share.
