I am currently Washington County Virginia's newest, shiniest, and least experienced, school bus driver, as of last week. To start with it looks like I'll be doing a lot of activity trips like sporting events and day field trips. I've already driven some, and so far the kids and coaches have been great, and the folks at the Transportation Center are very helpful and professional, with a noticeable spirit of cooperation that, sadly I've already heard from drivers from other counties, doesn't exist everywhere.
So far, so good.
I've gone back to working on a 4/4 possum Criddle that I started back in May. I think I will keep Semper Didelphis for myself because I'm writing the next great American novel, and when it's all done I'll need a possum Criddle for the big publicity events that will be required of famous authors, and all the people who want me to sign there copy of my book will naturally want to see one.
That's all for now. Be sure to check out the BBTS SALE page if you're interested in a traditional violin.
