Stuart, FL Day 2


Did I say there were train tracks nearby?! The Florida East Coast Railway line runs across the St Lucie River (remember that draw bridge?) and right through downtown Stuart. This is one busy railroad! And everytime a train comes the drawbridge goes down. A warning siren goes off ten, five and two minutes prior to the bridge closing. The siren can best be described and a "wolf howling in the night". It is downright eerie!

We walked into Stuart today in the pouring rain! This is something we never would have considered in the past (both walking and 'in the rain'). Also ate lunch at a very good Thai resturant "Basil Tree".

Was it something she said?!
