I live in a rural part of our county in the southern USA. We have towns close by, two within 20 miles and a larger one within 30 miles. We enjoy the rural life. It offered us a quiet and peaceful place to raise our family and now is comfortable for us.
We are staying close to home with the continued virus spread.
However, recently I took a morning to visit one of the closer towns and walked its streets (the "downtown" is probably fewer than 10 small city blocks) taking photos of what interested me. Over the next several days, I'd like to share those photos with you, to give you a glimpse into life here.
I've said before that the railroad runs right through the middle of town. This is one of the warning arms in town.
Even though I live in a very metropolitan area... I'm in a more rural county and downtown Acworth has a rail line running right though its center... so your shot made me think of it. I look forward to seeing more pictures of your home town. We are staying close to home too... it is a smart choice.
@kvphoto Thanks, KV! I think I have been to Acworth (does it have a small station and fencing?) and took photos of the train going through town. Our town is smaller with fewer shops.
@thewatersphotos yes... it has a small RR museum and a train station that is ornamental... I don't think the trains stop there. You can see a picture I took of the train station and posted last February: https://365project.org/kvphoto/365/2020-02-22
