Drew seemed like the kind of person that is happy to be here, where ever he happens to be at the time. Drew works for Burlingnorthern Railroad and was at the Rail Car Incident Class I was at. I love his unruly shock of ginger hair and nice smile.

If you look at the photo next to this one in my photostream you'll see why I have this photo of Robert looking down. I had snapped a photo of him "resting his eyes" during a break at a training we were at. His eyes popped open when he heard the click and he laughed. Then I asked about taking his photo "with" his permission and he said that was fine, but only if he could look busy and not sleepy. So, he's pretending to be writing, but he can't hide the little smile on his face. I'm also sure, by the way, that he really and truely was only resting his eyes and not dozing.

Thats what my dad always said anyway. Its hard sitting all day listening to lecture, even if the lecture is literally about train wrecks and explosions. We were all getting a bit weary. Anyway, he really was just resting his eyes because they popped open the second he heard the shutter. Then I asked him for a 100 Strangers photo since I didn't know him before. He said Yes, but wanted to "look busy" for it so I took another photo of him looking busy.
Oh, this is Robert by the way.

While exploring the hills we found this etching of a man leaning over a campfire. I'm so glad I saw it because it is fairly faint and old.
