We left just after 3:30 yesterday and until this morning about 4:30, had an uneventful trip. We saw a beautiful sunset just south of Buffalo and in Jeffersonville, Ohio changed bus drivers about 1:00 am. Smooth sailing until about 4:00 am when bus #2 couldn't get any speed above 30 mph. Since 7:30 we've been at Denny's in Elizabethtown, Kentucky. They are trying to repair the bus or we'll find a different one to take us the rest of the way. It's now 8:20, everyone has had a good breakfast and we're awaiting further developments. The staff at Denny's have been very accommodating and we are proud of our students' behavior. - Dick Bennett

Lots of coffee for James Bock. Dennys is not a bad place to be delayed. We are thinking of you.
ReplyDeleteHannah just called. They are shopping to pass the time. We talked about putting things into perspective and what it must have been like for the people of New Orleans to have to wait on roof tops to be rescued and crammed into the sports arena for days. Keep a positive attitude!
ReplyDeleteJust talk to Tom still stuck 12:25pm new bus on the way !! Can't wait to get on the road again. So What is a road trip without at least one set back that is what makes something to remember
ReplyDeleteBrian Sheldon just reported that they are in the new bus and on their way to the garage to swap the gear from the old to the new. Everyone is in good spirits.
ReplyDeletetext from Tom on the road again 12:55pm hope it goes smoothly from here on out ? By the way the bus is even better than the last one more room to lay down!!
ReplyDeleteBrian -- JUST what we didn't want to happen!
ReplyDeleteAll's well that ends well. Have a great week!
Are we there yet??
ReplyDeleteThey arrived safe and sound at 4:00. Not sure what time zone that means though. New Orleans is 1 hour earlier. The most current blogs are found under "Delay Update".
ReplyDeleteKeep up the great spirit Livonia Seniors! You will never forget this trip, you are doing a great thing!!
