The train station great hall. All trains go through Chicago; it is the great U.S. Amtrak hub. The lower you descend in the train station, the more people. The food court is hidden in a between layer underneath the lower marble floor and above the platform and crammed with people. I didn’t travel comfort class through Chicago, but I did see the premium lounge. Might not be a bad way to go. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60de7f3d7cdd8439544d3139/7587a40e-5a86-49fb-a55c-7c2a4fbaa8c3/KC-train-station.jpg Blog - 10 tips to slow travel the U.S. by train - Make it stand out Kansas City, Missouri. Amtrak boarding is through the doors in the archway on the right. The train departed at 10:15 p.m., and I arrived at the train station around 7 p.m. I’d begun this leg of the trip from Omaha, Nebraska, but there wasn’t a convenient train south. If I’d felt like returning to Galesburg, Illinois, or Chicago, I could have connected with a train to Kansas City. There was a night bus from Omaha to Kansas City, but it departed at 11 p.m., requiring an overnight in Kansas City to connect with the train. After A LOT of trip planning research, I settled on renting a car at the airport and driving to the airport in Kansas City (172 miles and about 2.5 hours drive time). I used ride hailing to reach the train station since the bus was a 30-minute wait, would take more than an hour to get to the train station, and involved one transfer. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60de7f3d7cdd8439544d3139/dd589a69-546f-4b73-98dd-493926c0534d/newton-train-station.jpg Blog - 10 tips to slow travel the U.S. by train - Make it stand out Newton, Kansas. I transferred from the Kansas City train to a bus in Newton. The train arrived at 2:30 a.m., and the bus departed at 3:30 a.m. A few people were sleeping on the chairs in the station, not catching the bus. I contemplated this painting. I do believe it was a bit crooked on the wall, but I didn’t break out my level to check nor did I straighten it. The bus was almost an hour late departing Newton because the driver could not get the wheelchair lift sensor to register it was closed. For 30 minutes or so the driver opened and closed the lift, slamming it to ensure it was closed. Eventually he called for extra help because the bus wouldn’t start. The call worked, the sensor relaxed, and away south we went - three passengers in a big coach. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60de7f3d7cdd8439544d3139/323c67ae-cede-4ed8-a49c-af5f748076ff/OKC-sunrise.jpg Blog - 10 tips to slow travel the U.S. by train - Make it stand out Nearing Oklahoma City in the bus.

I do it sometimes. Still, it drives me crazy how messy my handwriting looks from the train’s bumps, bounces, and jerks. I commended this man for drawing and painting on the train. We didn’t talk long, but maybe that’s part of his art process - take concept to train and get what you get. https://heidibeierle.com/blog/slow-travel-sense-a-smell-of-ft-worth-tx monthly 0.5 2025-05-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60de7f3d7cdd8439544d3139/9af5407e-d1da-4382-8557-e744da567cb4/Ft-worth-misting-stn.jpg Blog - Slow travel sense - a smell of Ft.

They gave me a cup of chantilly.

The money stayed on my desk where I could see it for days after I delivered the art. I felt I needed to do something to mark the exchange. Before I sorted it out, the two of us met for coffee/tea/lunch. She asked me, “So, how did it go, having your art up?” I shared about my writing and the exposure from my “Carnage” booklet. “But you sold a piece of art,” she said. I stopped talking. Yes. I had. She had affirmed me as an artist, and I was so wound up in something else I hadn’t recognized the importance of that affirmation to myself or her. This was a celebration! “You’re so right,” I said. “Thank you! I did. I sold art!” And, now, ta-da! I found a way to recognize this exchange that helps me see it and celebrate it. (Thank you, Yvette! This was a powerful lesson for me.) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60de7f3d7cdd8439544d3139/e2d6a3e5-d7fe-4e78-aaa4-34169baccec8/tall-cottonwood-trees.jpg Blog - On celebrating accomplishments - ta-da! - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60de7f3d7cdd8439544d3139/87cbed64-ab76-44dd-a7fe-9395177e2bcc/moss-sporangia.jpg Blog - On celebrating accomplishments - ta-da! - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://heidibeierle.com/blog/2023/03/21/off-season-slow-travel-to-ucluelet-bc monthly 0.5 2026-03-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60de7f3d7cdd8439544d3139/27b085f2-0d8a-4a17-9e6e-72237c442c89/HB-lighthouse-diagonal-tree.jpg Blog - Off-season slow travel to Ucluelet, BC In a gap between the rocks where a finger of ocean comes inland, a sole tree bobs in the breeze having been shaped by a violent wind that seems set on blowing all the branches and needles off this tenacious evergreen. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60de7f3d7cdd8439544d3139/f61350c6-743d-4050-b87f-17fe0ae0dad7/ww-ucluelet-map2-.png Blog - Off-season slow travel to Ucluelet, BC From the U.S. there are several ways to reach Vancouver Island.
