You've heard how some compare the sound of a tornado to that of a train? Believe it! While up in Sandpoint, I found this great one-lane tunnel under a rail line and had stopped to take a picture when this BNSF train comes roaring by. I don’t know if it’s because it’s right before a long railroad bridge that courses unobstructed across the Pend Orielle River, but this thing was “moving”. Talk about getting your attention!

Ordinarily, since my Charger is very “green”, I avoid taking any pictures on a lawn. I broke my own rule on this one however and I think it turned out pretty sweet. The lush green grass and trees with the soft blue of Lake Pend Orielle off in the distance combined well to make a nice image.

I got a chance to go to "Lost in the 50's" in beautiful Sandpoint, Idaho over the weekend. There were over 600 cars in attendance and after the classic car parade on Friday and the main street car show on Saturday I got a chance to check out the area and find some great places including this old lake front cemetery.
