Wash Rinse Repeat

I was excited when I woke up this morning to sunny skies. That hasn't happened here in a while. I decided that my walk had to be to the park to see if the mountain was revealing itself. And sure enough, there it was. It is looking nicely snow covered these days.

Besides walking, I have been knitting and planning my next train adventure. I have definitely decided that I will get the USA Rail Pass and make a month long trip out of my transportation to and from the wedding. I am thinking of taking the Coast Starlight and the California Zephyr to Chicago and the wedding. Then I will leave out on the Lake Shore Limited to New York. From there I'm thinking of taking the Carolinian Piedmont to Charlotte, the Crescent from Charlotte to New Orleans, the City of New Orleans back to Chicago and then the Texas Eagle to LA and the Coast Starlight back to Seattle. That will use up eight of my ten segments. I can leave the other two for now. That is a lot of travel. I'm sure that it will become refined as I plan more, but for now it gives me travelling through large portions of the country. I am waiting until February to finalize my plans. I understand that deals are coming soon.

The cat still lives.
