Life in a Small Town

As I’ve mentioned before, I live in a wonderfully small town. It’s the type of town where you can’t go to the grocery store without seeing someone you know – which is never a good thing when you’re in your pajamas on a Saturday morning and realize you have no milk for your cereal.

This town is full of great moments for photography. I thought it would be fun to feature some photos from my small town on the blog. So here it begins, the first installment of “Life in a Small Town.”

This first photo is of our local, historic train station. For many years, our small town was best known as the winter home of the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus. The circus would arrive in town by train and stay here for the cold winter months. Sadly, the circus train no longer comes roaring into this station, but I can only imagine the excitement that surrounded this place on those days.
