That first photo is awesome and I love the postcards but then I love seeing trains liveingnear the railway helps. Glad you like my Daily Photo blog
ReplyDeleteHello John, gorgeous sunset. The view of the mountain is lovely. You do have a great train postcard collection. Happy Friday, enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteSome outstanding skies in different formations. Excellent captures. Found the history of the railroads most interesting.
ReplyDeleteYou have such boring horizons there in Washington.
ReplyDeleteWow what a beautiful sunset.
ReplyDeleteNice train postcards too.
What a beautiful sunset. A woman I went to high school and college with loves to collect vintage postcards, and sells them on eBay. She would love these. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteI always love your sky shots and post cards. when I'm rlly bored I get a book of train photos from the library.
ReplyDeleteHello John, beautiful views from there! I wonder if I will have good luck when I visit to see these beautiful sceneries. The postcards are also really beautiful! The steam trains make me think of the Hogwarts Express from the Harry Potter movies. It's quite a tradition for me to rewatch the series during Christmas break.
ReplyDeleteJohn,you know I love any picture with mountains in it and these are gorgeous.I do like the old steam engines as well.Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteI love that opening photo, and you have an awesome view from your deck!! I'm a fan of those postcards too!
ReplyDeleteA great set of postcards.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous sky shots.
ReplyDeleteI do love those train postcards showing views from the past...
ReplyDeleteWinter and trains always seems quite romantic, in my head at least! You have an amazing collection of cards, thanks for showing them to us!
ReplyDeleteI always think of you and trains together, John. Love the winter scenes. :-)
ReplyDeleteThe postcards are gorgeous, a very talented artist, the Christmas ones are a nice touch, I assume the railroad company would also send them out as Christmas cards, nice to find one of those in the post. Lovely sunsets, we've been having a lot of mist so they are in short supply here.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful skywatch photos, I really loved the photo of the mountains.
ReplyDeleteAnd a bonus with postcards. My Mother lived in Seattle right after WWII and, unknown to me until a few months ago, she had quite a collection of Seattle postcards. I've been wondering what to do with them.
this sunset is captivating .truly treat to soul John.
ReplyDeletemountains and sunrise is fabulous too.
i loved these post cards as my inner child is still hugely fascinated by TRAINS so much .they display stunning views of Christmas enthusiasm .
they reminded me our train journey when we used to travel before our yearly festival to meet our grand parents and our heart were filled with joy and thrill while watching through windows running scenes
Original approach to the Postcards for the weekend theme! I always like pictures of trains.
