Railroad watch

    My great-aunt was one of the first women to rise to a position of responsibility in the railroad (she was also a suffragette). She believed strongly in women's rights at a time such things were not taken seriously. She made sure my mom got a good education so she could escape a life of housewifery. Alas, housewifery was what my mom chose...

      Lovely rendering. There should also be no "alas" on the choices made of others for themselves. Life is how you live it ... not what you do.
