Railroad Ties


Yes! As kids we would climb the ties, or float on them when impromptu ponds would emerge out back. Railroad ties were for my 6-11 year old self what tires at our farm were for my 0-5 year old self. What a life. One time my brother got his arm pinned beneath a tie, and I helped him get free. But that wasn't life-saving like the way he went after me when I couldn't swim and slipped off the boat drop-off at the lake one time.
