Train tracks in Spring

21 October 2019

This was taken off the Styx overbridge in Redwood looking down on the train tracks that were covered in pink blossom petals. It was my first spring in so long and I spent a lot of time in 2019 appreciating the seasons in this beautiful city I had grown up in.
