When you start your trip from Chicago's Union Station on the Empire Builder or head out west on Rt 66, most folks like to stop at Lou Mitchell's for a hearty breakfast (and ladies, we get free Milk Duds). The photos stop at Union Station--though I stopped in LA, from whence I started.
What we see is a hodge-podge of the great plains, Glacier National Park and the Pacific Ocean. I should have placed them in order, but, eh, who cares. I hope you enjoy the pictures and as always, they look much better full size. You can see the reflection of the Vista Dome windows in some. I worked hard to remove most of that particular problem, though one is a dramatic reflection of person and train. I left that one alone
P.S. I discovered if you click on the photo it will become full size. At least on my computer. I did not know that. Hope it works on your computer also.
More photos to be released soon.

The pier...Santa Monica?
camojack
I don't remember if it was Monterey or Santa Monica. So many piers, so little time.
Actually, that was not an Amtrak picture, but I liked it to much (both versions) to not include it in the gallery.
Monterey was a favorite hideout for me as was dining on the pier in Santa Barbara. So nowadays I kick myself for not labeling all my photos.
Great EyE, Ms. RW!
You are just awesome with a camera!!
Like Beerme said, you have a Great Eye Ms. RW. Maybe I can borrow it someday when you're not using it?
(:D) Best regards...
Thanks to all of you who came to the art show. I have more pictures but I messed up my DVD drives so I have quit scanning for now.
It is funny, but I was not happy with a lot of these photos until I redid them on the computer and made them look like what I hoped they would look like to begin with. One hour photo shops destroy good pics, but that is all that is left for us film users. I still say they are better than digital.
Wow - gorgeous photos!
Those are wonderful photos MS. RW.
A couple of them look very similar to my neck of the woods in Eastern WA but then again we look like a lot of places.
