The RailRoad crossing at the Heart of the USA, Andale Kansas

At the family farm, in the heart of the US, Andale Kansas, there is a railroad crossing where the children like to frolic and play. Usually on the fourth of July, when this photo was taken, the climate is dry and dead, but this year was special; with water surrounding the tracks on the flooded fields where the wheat usually grows.
