One of Mom's favorite stories from her childhood was about taking the train to Portsmouth, Virginia to visit her mother's cousin "Tempe." What fascinates me about this brief story is the ease with which they could take the train from the station in Seaboard, NC to so many desitnations. I also remember her taking the train to Virginia Beach and also nearby Weldon, which was a train hub for years.
You will find the actual photo below as well as the "picture in the window" that her cousin bought. Mom looks so much like my sister in these photos!
ENJOY!
