S3. E2. Back to School (in Eaton River County Junction).

Kindergarteners, pumpkins, a school bus, and... more dirt.  The usual October trip to one of the Farms here in Colorado. Driving distractions include, onions, rutabagas, carrots, potatoes and the enterprise of U-PICK of big veggies by small people.   Impressive.   

If we're talking about anyone who drives, anywhere-- road construction hold-ups and obstacles must be mentioned.  Now that's a hard job.  Driving distractions include: All kinds of dirt.    MUSIC is   SWAG ON by Mary Riddle.

Todo en la vida... Or just everything I'm willing to share.   In this case, how we came to Colorado in 2006.      

Going back to work... And many half hearted regrets. Driving distractions include; Cartoons, route books, the writer's voice... and not wanting to work. Until you get there. 

There are always a few mandatory assignments we have to complete,  Before we go back to school. Driving distractions include;   Wondering, like some of us might do at the beginning of a school year, why you are still a bus driver, bored kids, aimless wanderings in a school bus, the working people, Malcom Gladwell, The Moth, and finding your voice.   

This summer is going to be different.  I have plans. At least, that's what I thought a few months ago... But it wasn't. Any different, I mean.   And that's okay.   Driving distractions include; The weird things that happen when you wear pink, the things you never get done... And one particular bougainvillea.   

There are nights of dreams in the early days of a new job--and maybe a few years longer.  Until there aren't anymore.  Driving distractions include; remembering those dreams and growing up close enough to Disney World that we knew it well.  That means Walts World comes up often in a Peter Pan sort of job.    I forgot to mention; MUSIC included in this episode: ZAYOO by LUKAS GOT LUCKY THE TYPE by MIMMI BANGOURA

Greetings from Eaton River County Junction, Colorado! Hope you all stay with us until June comes around again! --Alexandra, Andrew and anyone else brave enough to talk into a mic. (and maybe drive a school bus) Driving distractions include... Whatever music we're listening to. (No truer words). 

 It's another school year in Eaton River County Junction.  We hope you all stay with us—Alexandra, Andrew, Louis and  and anyone else who is willing to to talk into a mic—until June comes around again.             Driving distractions include—some encouraging words for new drivers.  (At least, we hope they are).
