Bus Rides
My wife and daughter take a bus to go to church every week or at least the weeks when the bus driver feels like dragging her butt out of bed to take them. Lately they have been staying home a lot and watching the service online because their driver is a no-show.
The bus they ride is an older school bus and it makes an awful racket at times. The dog hears it from a block or more away and comes running out to the door to greet them because he knows they are almost home.
What their church needs is to go and look at activity buses for sale. A newer bus would not only help with the bus noise as they go down the street it might also help the church with saving some of the quarter of a million dollars per year that they spend on all their buses. Every one of their buses that I have seen is an old, retired, school bus. Time for them to start with a fresh bus!
If your church or other social group has a need for an activity bus then you too should go check out the buses on sale and see if there is one that is right for you. Better to ride in comfort and know that the bus will get you to your destination.
And, once you have that bus, find a driver that is willing and able to drive it for you.
