    When I was 17 I was driving my mom’s car. Suddenly the neighborhood seemed very dark so I stopped. I was sitting on a boat ramp into the Gulf of Mexico.

    One night in college I was driving down a street that runs parallel to railroad tracks and then jogs to cross them. As I crossed I glanced over to see a train right outside my passenger door.

    I don’t know how I got lucky enough to find my husband.
