I'm back from vacation
You may have noticed I took a break from
My wife and I took a cruise through the Panama Canal. This photo with bottles of Coke is from the Canal, around 1940.
Needless to say, what I saw over the last few weeks looked quite different! However, they are still using locomotives to help guide large ships through the canal locks.
We had a great time and loved seeing the process of traveling through the Canal. I’m glad to be home, though, and look forward to talking with you more here on the blog.
