Anticipation builds for Big Boy |
Description: |
About 30 mintutes before the train was due to arrive some idiot parked their white SUV next to the ballast pile on the left, blocking the view of a hundred or so people. I gave them a dirty look but to no avail. I finally decided to ask them to move and they did. The crowd thanked me and let me tell you, I felt like a goddamn hero! I told them "I didn't come all the way from Massachusetts to have my shot blocked!" |
