THE CROSSING
I was intrigued by the word "the crossing" today for some reason.
Some how it had a certain ring to it and yet I couldn't quite place and then
ah yes I remembered my "Train Ride" in spring of 1977 accross Canada from London Ont
to Edmonton... Alberta
Ah yes it was a two or 3 day journey on the train and we pulled out and shared our
guitars and played and sang and watched the scenery unfold as we trekked slowly accross the "great lands."
A sense of fellowship soon developed with help of the music and we shared our meger resources, food and stories and the hopes and dreams of us young people returning home from school or just journeying to destinations anew.
Hadn't really realized the impact of it. Meeting people from every part of the country and developing close bonds in such short times and then each of us bidding adue and on to a different path but richer and "changed" perhaps for the meeting and sharing.
All and all though tedious at times a good adventure for a young soul on his own.
But I suppose wits are well advised to be on alert as some goods went missing but still the fond memories outweigh them by far and are still there I see.
