Trains

100 feet from my front door are train tracks, and there are always trains going by! When I first moved in they would wake me up all the time, but now that I've been there for two years its not so bothersome. The only thing that sucks is when I get stuck on the WRONG side of the tracks.
Like today. I was coming home from a meeting and I got stopped at the crossing, 50 feet from my driveway! You literally go over the track and turn left and your in my driveway. Its so frustrating! Luckily this was a short train but we have had trains that take 5+ minutes pass.
Last summer when my family was having lunch in the back yard I counted 300 train cars before I lost count. Now that is a long train! My little cat Hemi does not like the trains. Whenever we hear one he comes bolting through the dog door all puffy. Little dork. The goats just stair at it until it passes though.
It also sucks when I need to leave for work and the cars are backed up blocking my way out. Either way its a lose lose situation.
All in all, I hate these tracks!
