The Soo/ CP east local from La Crosse waits in the clear. You can see the old CNW right of way which is now the La Crosse River trail on the right hand side of the picture. This was a part or section of that line which came across southern Minnesota from South Dakota. It crossed the Milwaukee double track at Tower CK, just north or west of Winona. There it is now called the DM&E and here it is a state bicycle and snow mobile trail! Notice the Amish kids with their horse and buggy on their way home from school! Their farms are located all thru the countryside near here and their handmade furniture is beautiful! I admire them because they actually live according to and by that which they say that they believe. They do not say one thing and then do something else! But one thing is for sure, I know that I could NOT live and work as they do! They say that it is a good and honest life, but it would be a hard life also! Maybe it is not to them, but it sure would be for me! |
