Sunday, April 17th, we decided to head out for the afternoon and enjoy the sunshine and shoot a few trains around the house on the NS Louisville District, and as it turns out, it would be the last Sunny weekend we would see of the rest of the month. It seems to have done nothing but storm and rain since then, and I am starting to get cabin fever to say the least!
Here are are a few pics from the 17th.. The full set can be found at this link, if you need a little dose of pretty weather! http://www.pbase.com/kd4jsl/nsls11eb (http://www.pbase.com/kd4jsl/nsls11eb)
