the week so far

I had a car appointment on Monday. It was supposed to take all day. It was a potpourri of things that needed to be done: a recall, inspection, oil change, 30K checkup, and the handle fell off the seat.

My original plan was to ask Bonnie to meet me at the dealer and bring me home. Then, when it was time to get the car, I'd walk over to the bus station and take the bus and get the car.

It poured. And I forgot to call Bonnie. I took the bus home. Two buses and no walk.

I have ridden many buses over the years. At one time I commuted to work using the bus. In large cities I use the bus often. ,However, I have not rode a Lanta bus in a long time.  Not since they changed to silly numbers. The first bus, (202) Union Blvd, was wonderful. The driver was polite, the bus clean. The Bethlehem bus station was disgusting. Especially in the rain. The (108) Fountain Hill bus made the bus station look clean. It smelled like shit and vomit. I had to look at the seats to find one to sit on. The driver was silent. Not a great experience. (My bus riding sister says this is typical of the FH bus —"the pigs" bus. It is clean if you ride before 8 am, after that it is a crap shoot.)

Bonnie, thankfully, took me back to pick up my car.  Other than dog-walks, there was no walks on Monday. Tuesday more rain and dog walks. Wednesday I actually got to go on a walk in the hood, without a dog. Plus two with the dog.

Today the sun is out. It's cold and I can't wait to go out.

Wednesday Walk Stats:
Miles/Steps: about 3 miles
Bathrooms:  None 😞
Wildlife:       Do squirrels and bunnies count?

Extras:        The crossing guard crossed me twice at the 5 points.
