"Lost
On a painted sky
Where the clouds are hung
For the poets eye
You may find him
If you may find him
There
On a distant shore
By the wings of dreams
Through an open door
You may know him
If you may
Be
As a page that aches for words
Which speaks on a theme thats timeless
While the sun God will make for your day
Sing
As a song in search of a voice that is silent
And the one God will make for your way
And we dance
To a whispered voice
Overheard by the sould
Undertook by the heart
And you may know it
If you may know it
While the sand
Would become the stone
Which begat the spark
Turned to living bone
Holy, holy
Sanctus, sanctus
Be
As a page that aches for word
..."

Be (Jonathan Livingston Seagull)
Two SD45's and a SD40-2XR race the Spokane-Laurel out of Livingston. Montana is amazing and I'm glad the retards that came with me enjoyed themselves.
Jonathan Livingston Seagull, written by Richard Bach, is a fable in novella form about a seagull learning about life and flight, and a homily about self-perfection. It was first published in 1970 as "Jonathan Livingston Seagull — a story."
With the assistance of the Livingston based Helper #1, two SD70ACe's lead the LM up the 1.9% grade of Bozeman Pass at a blistering 19MPH.
Taken near Livingston off the M8 on a recent misty morn.
Two exposures blended together and then tonemapped. Orton then applied to wooded area, but foreground untouched. Too many branches on the floor so had to clone them out, but struggling as not much bare grass.
Jonathan Livingston seagull.
For most gulls, it is not flying that matters, but eating. For this gull, though, it was not eating that mattered, but flight.
The LM pulls West past the helper set that'll soon be knuckling into the rear car for the push over Bozeman.
Rain looms on the horizon, while a grain train slugs up the 1.8% grade of Bozeman Pass, with MRL's Livingston based Helper #3 on the rear, shoving.
In MRL's ever expanding attempt to save fuel, all helper sets, except for grain trains, have had the SD40 removed. Grain trains get one less unit than a coal train, and the DC traction motors (or AC's on a ES44C4) require the extra unit on the rear, and in this case, it's the MRL 251.
A westbound coal train starts its trip up the east slope of Bozeman Pass as it departs Livingston, MT.
It's getting to be time for another trip... But it'll have to wait, as a temporary disposition to Kansas City for three weeks will eat up my time.
After stalling and needing a second set of manned helpers, a grain train is pushed by Helper 2 out of Livingston. Two BNSF GEVO's were on the headend, then a MRL ACe/40/ACe trio cut in mid and then these four on the rear... Still crawled!
Una distanza materiale non potrà mai separarci davvero dagli amici. Se anche solo desideri essere accanto a qualcuno che ami, ci sei già.

Il piccolo e anticonformista Gabbiano Jonathan riesce ad intravedere una nuova via da poter seguire, una via che allontana dalla banalità e dal vuoto del suo precedente stile di vita, e comprende che oltre che del cibo un gabbiano vive " della luce e del calore del sole, vive del soffio del vento, delle onde spumeggianti del mare e della freschezza dell'aria.

After picking up a healthy cut of GATX coke hoppers in Livingston, the MRL 329 scurries East with over 8,000 feet of train on the drawbars and two matched sisters helping out.
I found and read this book while at university, probably in 1983:
Jonathan Livingston Seagull, written by Richard Bach, is a fable in novella form about a seagull learning about life and flight, and a homily about self-perfection and self-sacrifice. First published in 1970 as "Jonathan Livingston Seagull — a story", it became a favorite on American university campuses. By the end of 1972, over a million copies were in print, Reader's Digest had published a condensed version, and the book reached the top of the New York Times bestseller list where it remained for 38 weeks. It is still in print as of 2006.
Hope you can visit my most interesting images.
This is a story for people who follow their dreams and make their own rules; a story that has inspired people for decades. For most seagulls, life consists simply of eating and surviving. Flying is just means of finding food. However, Jonathan Livingston Seagull is no ordinary bird. For him, flying is life itself. Against the conventions of seagull society he seeks to find a higher purpose and become the best at doing what he loves. This is a fable about the importance of making the most of our lives, even if our goals run contrary to the norms of our flock, tribe or neighbourhood. Through the metaphor of flight, Jonathan's story shows us that, if we follow our dreams, we too can soar.
